This particular bacteria is a Tegetincola.

Description and significance

Nonlabens Tegetincola is an Orange-pigmented, Gram-negative, rod-shaped and is can survive and grow in the presence of oxygen. This bacteria was discovered in the Bahamas on a microbial mat in an Estuary. The colonies that were grown on marine agar grew to the size of 2.0mm-4.0mm, and to achieve this size using the temperature of 28–36 °C. There is very little known about this bacteria but we do know that the fatty acids that are stored are i15 : 0, i16 : 0, i17 : 0 3-OH, and summed feature 3, comprising i15 : 0 2-OH and/or 16 : 1ω7c.

Include as many headings as are relevant to your microbe (including things like cell metabolism, ecology, pathology, application to biotechnology). Or, if your microbe is very new and not well studied, then include a heading or two with more description about its native environment or something related to its lifestyle.

Current Research

describe one or two topics of research on this microbe
