Background | In 2001 Methylobacterium, which had been hitherto found associated non-symbiotically with plants, was discovered to nodulate Crotalaria, a large Fabaceae group found in Africa. Strain ORS 2060 (also known as CNCM I 2342T=LMG 21967T), the type strain for this species, was isolated from nodules on C. podocarpa from the Bel-Air area, Dakar, Senegal. It is able to use C1 compounds such as methanol, formate and formaldehyde but not methylamine as its sole carbon source, as well as more complex carbon sources such as succinate, citrate, pyruvate, glutamate and ethanol. It grows as short asporogenous Gram-negative rods that occur singly or occasionally in pairs; some are motile with one or more polar flagella. Optimal growth occurs at pH 6.8-7.5 and at 30-37 degrees C. It is strictly aerobic and unpigmented (adapted from PubMed 15545469 and http://genome.jgi-psf.org/finished_microbes/metno/metno.home.html). (EBI Integr8) |
