MICROBULBIFER VARIBILIS
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Microbulbifer |
| Species: | Microbulbifer varibilis |
| Description: | Cells are Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile and non-spore-forming. Catalase- and oxidase-positive. Colonies on MA are irregular (young cultures), rhizoid (older cultures), umbonate, glossy and transparent (young cultures) to opaque (older cultures). Colour of colonies is milky white (young cultures) and yellow–green in the central portion (older cultures). Colonies on 1/10 MA are very thin and spreading. |
