  • Information on physiology and metabolism Physiology and metabolismarrow_down
  • [Ref.: #65383] Observation Colony forming efficiency is quite low (less than 0.001 %).
    [Ref.: #65383] Observation Heterotrophic growth occurs on following complex substrates (yeast extract, peptone, tryptone, casamino acids) and sugars (starch, sucrose, lactose, maltose, raffinose, D-glucose, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-arabinose and L-arabinose).
    [Ref.: #65383] Observation Chemolithotrophic growth occurs on pyrite (FeS 2 ) but not on elemental sulfur, K2S4O6 , and oxidation of hydrogen.
    [Ref.: #65383] Observation Anaerobic growth on FeCl 3 occurs in the presence of yeast extract.
