IDIOMARINA FONTISLAPIDOSI
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Idiomarina |
| Species: | Idiomarina fontislapidosi |
| Description: | Cells are slightly curved rods, 3–4 μm long and 0·75 μm wide, appearing either singly or in pairs, and often forming amorphous aggregates. They stain Gram-negative and are motile by one polar flagellum. No spores or polyhydroxyalkanoate are observed under any conditions. Colonies are round, convex, mucoid and cream coloured. Exopolysaccharide is produced. The growth pattern is uniform in a liquid medium. The bacterium is chemo-organotrophic and strictly aerobic. Anaerobic respiration with nitrate, nitrite or fumarate is negative. |
