IDIOMARINA AQUATICA
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Idiomarina |
| Species: | Idiomarina aquatica |
| Description: | Cells are Gram-stain-negative, motile, slightly curved rods (0.4 × 1.25–2.1 μm), occurring singly. Non-endospore-forming. Colonies are circular, entire, smooth, convex, cream and 1.5–2.5 mm in diameter on SW 7.5% agar medium after 48 h of incubation at 37 °C. Strictly aerobic. Moderately halophilic, growing at 3–15% (w/v) NaCl, with optimal growth at 7.5% (w/v) NaCl. No growth occurs in the absence of NaCl. The temperature range for growth is 5–40 °C, with optimal growth at 37 °C. The pH range for growth is 5–10 and optimal growth is at pH 7.0. |
