IDIOMARINA TAINANENSIS
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Idiomarina |
| Species: | Idiomarina tainanensis |
| Description: | Cells are Gram-negative, rod-shaped, approximately 2.5–3.2 μm long and 0.6–0.9 μm wide, and non-motile. Colonies on PY agar plates at 30 °C for 7 days are approximately 3–6 mm in diameter, yellow in colour, circular, convex and non-luminescent, with entire edges. Endospores are absent. Poly- β-hydroxybutyrate is not accumulated as an intracellular reserve product. Nitrate is not reduced to nitrite. Does not grow anaerobically by fermentation of glucose or other carbohydrates as substrates. NaCl is required for growth; growth occurs at 0.5–15 % NaCl, with optimum growth at 2–5 %. Growth occurs at 10–42 °C, with optimum growth at 30–35 °C; does not grow at 4 or 45 °C. Growth occurs at pH values between 6 and 10, with optimum growth at pH 7–8; does not grow at pH 5. |
