Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Erwinia
Species: Erwinia persicinus
Description: Cells are gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, fermentative (producing acid but not gas) Rods, these are motile by means of peritrichous flagella.It forms water-soluble pink pigmented colonies. There is no data found in genome and 182 Nucleotide sequences are available for this ogranism. For futher information about sequences just click on link which is shown in "GenBank Accession section".
Synonyms: Erwinia persicina (corrig. Hao et al. 1990); Erwinia nulandi.
Source: It can be isolated from, but are not pathogenic for, tomato, banana, and cucumber.One Erwinia persicina strain was isolated from a human (O’ Hara et al., 1998).Erwinia persicina found in bean in the United States and south-eastern Spain and also found in tomato, banana and cucumber in Japan.
