Background Paludibacter propionicigenes (strain DSM 17365 / JCM 13257 / WB4) is a strictly anaerobic, chemoorganotrophic, propionate-producing Gram-negative bacterium isolated from rice plant residue in anoxic rice-field soil in Japan. Cells are generally rod-shaped with ends that are round or slightly tapered. The temperature range for growth is between 15 and 35 degrees Celsius, with an optimum at 30 degrees Celsius. The organism does not grow at 37 degrees Celsius. The pH range for growth is between 5.0 and 7.6 with an optimum at pH 6.6. NaCl concentrations from 0 to 0.5% (w/v) are tolerated. P. propionicigenes is able to utilize arabinose, glucose, fructose, xylose, cellobiose, galactose, mannose, maltose, melibiose, glycogen and soluble starch as growth substrates.
