PSEUDOMONAS ZESHUII

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Pseudomonas
Species: Pseudomonas zeshuii
Description: Cells are Gram-stain-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, non-spore-forming, flagellated, non-motile, short rods, 0.6–0.8μm wide and 2.8–3.2μm long. After 3 days incubation on TSA, colonies are 1.0–2.0 mm in diameter, yellowish, convex and circular with entire edges. Growth occurs in 0–5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0.5 %) at pH 5.0– 9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and 20–40°C (optimum, 30–35°C). No growth was observed at 42°C.

Source: The type strain was isolated from an agricultural field which had been exposed to the herbicide fomesafen for many years, in Qiqihaer city, Heilongjiang province, PR China.
