The air around you - anywhere on earth - has lots of floating wild yeasts in it. A big jar of fruit juice left to the open air for a few days will start to ferment. Fermentation is the process where yeasts eat sugars, and, as waste product, create carbon dioxide - and alcohol. That is fermentation.

Why does pseudomonas give negative reactions on all the fermentations?

Pseudomonas bacteria typically give negative reactions in fermentation tests because they are mostly aerobic bacteria and do not ferment carbohydrates like other bacteria. Instead, they carry out oxidative metabolism using organic compounds as their energy source. As a result, they do not produce the byproducts associated with fermentation reactions, leading to negative results in fermentation tests.
