PSEUDOMONAS PELAGIA

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Pseudomonas
Species: Pseudomonas pelagia
Description: Gram-negative, strictly aerobic and motile by a single polar flagellum. Cells are non-spore-forming, straight rod-shaped, approximately 0.4–0.5μm in width and 1.8–2.0μm in length. Cells do not contain poly-b-hydroxybutyrate granules. No fluorescent pigments are detected. H2S is not produced. After 3 days on LB agar at 25°C, colonies are circular, convex and white in colour, and about 1.5–2 mm in diameter. Cells also grow on MA and tryptic soy agar (TSA; Difco). Growth occurs within the temperature range 4–33°C (optimum, 25°C) and at pH 6.5–9.1(optimum, pH 7.5–8.1). Growth occurs in NaCl concentrations of 0.5–8 %, w/v (optimum, 1–2 %).
