SALMONELLA SUBTERRANAE
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Salmonella |
| Species: | Salmonella subterranae |
| Description: | The National Salmonella Reference Laboratory at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has determined that the new species of Salmonella subterranea reported by Shebolina et.al.It is not likely a Salmonella species, demonstrated by molecular and phylogenetic evaluation. Cells are regular motile rods 2.0 to 3.4 microns long and 0.7 to 0.9 microns in diameter with rounded ends.Cells have one lateral flagellum.Optimal growth occurs at pH 6.5 to 9.0, and no growth was documented with initial pH values lower than 4.0 or higher than 9.5. Growth is most rapid at 30 to 37°C,and no growth occurs at temperatures below 10°C or above 42°C. Positive for indole production, by methyl red test,and for ornithine decarboxylase; negative by Voges-Proskauer test, for phenylalanine deaminase, for lysine decarboxylase, for argi- nine dihydrolase, for urea hydrolysis, for H2S production, and for gelatin hydrolysis. There is no data found in genome and 20 Nucleotide sequences are available for this ogranism. For more information about sequences just click on link which is shown in "GenBank Accession section". |
| Synonyms: | Salmonella subterranea (Shelobolina et al. 2005) |
| Source: | Salmonella spp. are frequently isolated from aquatic and sedimentary environments and are able to multiply in soil and estuarine environments.But this strain was isolated from a subsurface nitrate and U(VI)-contaminated sediment. Strain has been deposited in the American Type Culture Collection (accession number ATCC BAA-836). |
