RHEINHEIMERA AQUIMARIS

Class: Gamma Proteobacteria
Genus: Rheinheimera
Species: Rheinheimera aquimaris
Description: Cells are rods or cocci (0.4–0.7 x 0.5–2.5μm) on MA and rods (0.3–0.5 x 1.0–5.0μm) on trypticase soy agar. Cells are Gram-negative, non-spore-forming and motile by means of single polar flagella. After incubation for 2 days at 37°C,colonies on MA are circular, raised, slightly wrinkled, yellowish-white in colour and 2.0–3.0 mm in diameter; colonies on trypticase soy agar (Difco) are circular, slightly convex, glistening, smooth, greyish-yellow in colour and 3.0–4.0 mm in diameter.
