COLWELLIA HADALIENSIS
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Colwellia |
| Species: | Colwellia hadaliensis |
| Description: | An obligately barophilic bacterium.Its minimum, optimum, and maximum growth pressures at 2°C were <370, 740 and >1,020 atm hydrostatic pressure, respectively. At 10°C., all cardinal growth pressures shifted upwards about 200 atm, but at no tested pressure was the organism capable of growth at 15°C. Most rapid generation time, 7 h, was observed at 10°C and 925 atm. |

| Source: | Was isolated in the laboratory, under deepsea conditions of 2 °C and 740 atm hydrostatic pressure, from a sample of particle-rich seawater collected at a hadal depth of 7,410 m in the Puerto Rico Trench of the Atlantic Ocean. |
