PSEUDOMONAS GUINEAE

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Pseudomonas
Species: Pseudomonas guineae
Description: Cells are rod-shaped (0.4–0.5μm wide and 1.5–2.0μm long), Gram-negative, non-spore-forming and do not produce fluorescent pigment on King’s B medium. Cells are motile by means of polar flagella. After 72 h incubation at 15°C on TSA, colonies are 1.5–2.0 mm in diameter, smooth and round with irregular edges. Growth occurs at temperatures between 24 and 30°C, but not at 37°C.NaCl is tolerated at concentrations up to 4 % (w/v).Growth is very poor under anaerobic conditions.

Source: The type strain was isolated from a soil sample collected from Deception Island (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica).
