PSEUDOMONAS DECEPTIONENSIS

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Pseudomonas
Species: Pseudomonas deceptionensis
Description: Cells are rod-shaped (0.8 x 1.5–2.0μm), Gram-reaction-negative, oxidase-positive, non-spore-forming and motile by means of a single polar flagella. Does not produce fluorescent pigments on King’s B medium.After 72 h of incubation at 20°C on TSA, colonies are 1.5–2.0 mm in diameter, white,round, mucous and slightly convex. Growth occurs at 24 to 34°C and at pH 5–10. NaCl is tolerated at concentrations up to 6 % (w/v). Growth on MA is very poor under anaerobic conditions.
