Pseudomonas citronellolis Seubert 1960.
Gram negative, 0.5 x 1-1.5 μm rods, motile with polar single flagella.
Transparent, raised circular colonies with slightly wrinkled edges. Hemolysis on
defibrinated rabbit blood agar.
Obligately aerobic (grow anaerobically only in the presence of nitrate), optimal growth
temperature 30 °C. Can grow at 41 ºC. Uncertain growth at 4 ºC (positive according to
Prakash et al. 2007 and negative according to Elke Lang et. al 2007).Media:
Trypticase Soy Agar, Nutrient agar, LB medium. The species shows positive reactions
for growth at and in the presence of 5% NaCl.

Can degrade the toxic hydrocarbon constituents present in oily sludge . Citronellol and
related compounds oxidation (use citronellol as sole carbon source).

production from fructose & glycerol are positive. Nitrates are reduced to nitrites.
Lecithinase, methyl red, hydrolysis of gelatin & casein, acetylmethylcarbinol, H2S &
indole negative. No acid & no gas produced from: lactose, galactose, maltose, glucose,
dulcitol, inositol, mannitol, inulin, dextrin, sucrose, arabinose.
