PSEUDOMONAS SALEGENS
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Pseudomonas |
| Species: | Pseudomonas salegens |
| Description: | Cells are Gram-stain-negative, and motile rods, 0.8–1.9 x 0.3–0.6μm. Endospores are not produced. Colonies are tiny, punctiform, convex, entire, smooth and non-pigmented with a diameter of 0.5 mm on 3 % MH agar medium after 72 h of incubation at 30°C. Cells are non-fluorescent on King A and B media. Strictly aerobic.Slightly halophilic, growing between NaCl concentrations of 1 and 10 % (w/v), with optimal growth at 3 % (w/v) NaCl. No growth occurs in the absence of NaCl. Grows at 4–35°C (optimally at 30C) and pH 6.5–9.0 (optimally at pH 8.0). |
