P. Devos et al., IDENTIFICATION OF PROFERROROSAMINE PRODUCING PSEUDOMONAS SP STRAIN-GH(LMG-11358) AS ERWINIA-RHAPONTICI, Systematic and applied microbiology, 16(2), 1993, pp. 252-255
The taxonomic position of the proferrorosamine A producing strain Pseu
domonas sp. GH (LMG 11358) was studied. Phenotypic characterization (A
PI 20E and API 50CHE), gaschromatographic analysis of methylated cellu
lar fatty acids and sodiumdodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gelelectropho
resis of whole-cell proteins all support reclassification of LMG strai
n 11358 as Erwinia rhapontici. All previously reported data on the iro
n-chelating capacity of the strain are thus linked with the genus Erwi
nia and not with the genera Pseudomonas or Bacillus.
