PSEUDOMONAS ORYZIHABITANS

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Pseudomonas
Species: Pseudomonas oryzihabitans
Description: Cells are rods 0.8 by 2.0 μm and have rounded ends. The cells occur singly, rarely in pairs, and are motile by means of a polar monotrichous flagellum . Granules of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate do not accumulate in the cells.Endospores are not formed. Gram negative. Colonies on 0.5% glucose nutrient agar are smooth or wrinkled, entire or erose, flat to convex, light yellow, and 2 mm in diameter after 2 days of incubation at 30°C. A pellicle is formed on the surface of0.5% glucose nutrient broth. A water-insoluble yellow pigment is produced. No water- soluble fluorescent pigment is produced. Growth occurs on MacConkey agar and SS agar.
