P. morabilis is characterized by its swarming ability. On a nutritive media plate the organism will swarm the entire plate due to its hyper mobility from its peritrichious flagella. Colonies can generally be seen to be opaque with irregular borders and have a smooth texture.

I've done a few isolated smears of P. vulgaris. On my nutrient agar, MacConckey's and blood agar plates, they were all round, white and slightly dome-shaped (raised). I'd estimate they are about 0.66 millimeters in diameter.

Who is known as the father of morphology?

German Novelist, Poet and a Philosopher Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is known as the Father of Morphology. He discovered it in the early nineteenth century.


How do you prove a culture is pure colony bacteria?

A colony is one 'circle' of bacteria, to distinguish between them you could try testing them with antibiotics, increasing/lowering temperature, increasing/lowering humidity (or pH), changing the components of their nutrients (blood agar, starch agar etc) or even changing the atmosphere they are in (so removal of oxygen, addition of nitrogen/carbon dioxide). You can separate each colony by determining what conditions each bacteria work best in, simply by changing a few factors, then attempting to regrow them. Also there are several staining methods which you could try, gram staining, simple iodine tests, which could also differentiate each colony.


What is the colony color ofr psuedomonas aeruginosa?

It depends upon the primary stain used. In Gram-staining the primary stain is Crystal Violet. P. aureus stains (and remains after decolorizing) purple which indicates that it is a Gram-positive bacteria.


Which of these is not an important part of the process of evolution mutation inheritance adaptation or morphology?

Evolution always involves adaption. The genes that allow an organism (s) to adapt to the environment will pass on their genes.Mutation may produce that gene and the organism will inherit them and their shape (morphology) may be what the genes produce but adaptation is the key to evolution. "The fittest survive".

What are the characteristics of pseudomonas fluorescens?

Pseudomonas fluorescens is a gram-negative bacterium known for its ability to produce a green fluorescence under certain conditions. It is commonly found in soil and water habitats and is considered an opportunistic pathogen. It produces a wide range of extracellular enzymes and secondary metabolites, which allows it to adapt to various environments and play roles in nutrient cycling, plant growth promotion, and biocontrol of plant pathogens.

What are Pseudomonas?

Pseudomonas are proteobacteria that belong to the genus Pseudomonas. There are a number of species such as P. aeruginosa, which is an opportunistic pathogen, causing infections in CF patients, burn/wound victims etc.. There is also the P. putida, P. fluorescens etc. They are know for their metabolic diversity, being able to breakdown a wide range of organic compounds including xenobiotics. They are also known for their hydrocarbon degrading abilities and some of their enzymes such as phytases, lipases may have industrial applications.
