PSYCHROBACTER FULVIGENES

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Psychrobacter
Species: Psychrobacter fulvigenes
Description: Cells are aerobic, Gram-negative, non-motile, non-pigmented, non-spore-forming and ovoid (1.6–1.9μm long and 0.7–0.9μm in diameter). Oxidase- and catalase-positive. Colonies on NA are beige, circular with an entire margin, convex and 2–4 mm in diameter. Produces black–brown pigments when grown on and in standard media,including TSA, TSB, MA, MB, NA, NB and R2A. Black–brown pigment is produced on MA supplemented with 1% L-tyrosine.

Source: The type strain was isolated from a specimen of the marine crustacean Paralithodes camtschatica,collected from Peter the Great Bay of the Sea of Japan.
