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.

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".

Is p fluorescens catalase positive?

Yes, Pseudomonas fluorescens is catalase positive. This means that it is able to produce the enzyme catalase, which breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen, causing bubbling or gas production. This can be observed when a bacterial colony is tested with hydrogen peroxide.


The effect of ampicillin chloramphenicol erythromycin methicillin penicillin streptomycin sulphafurazole tetracycline on staphylococcus albus pseudomonas fluorescents micrococcus luteus baci?

Ampicillin, erythromycin, penicillin, and methicillin are effective against Staphylococcus albus but not against Pseudomonas fluorescens. Chloramphenicol, erythromycin, and streptomycin are effective against Pseudomonas fluorescens. Chloramphenicol and erythromycin are effective against Micrococcus luteus. Tetracycline is effective against Bacillus sp., including Bacillus subtilis. Sulphafurazole is effective against many gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas fluorescens.

Can Pseudomonas fluorescens grow on MacConkey agar?

Yes. But because it is not a lactose fermenter, the colonies will be colorless (or sometimes have a green tint).


What is the Motion of pseudomonas fluorescens in hanging drop preparation?

In a hanging drop preparation, Pseudomonas fluorescens can exhibit motility by moving actively through the liquid medium using flagella. The movement is typically characterized by a swift and smooth motion, allowing the bacteria to explore their environment efficiently within the hanging drop.


Spp of pseudomonas found in the soil?

Some common species of Pseudomonas typically found in soil include Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas putida, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These bacteria are known for their ability to thrive in diverse environmental conditions and play important roles in nutrient cycling and plant health.

What is the optimum growth temperature for Pseudomonas flurescens?

Pseudomonas fluorescens typically grows best at temperatures between 25-30 degrees Celsius. This range allows for optimal enzyme activity and metabolism, promoting efficient growth and reproduction for the bacteria. Extremes in temperature outside of this range may slow down or inhibit growth.
