ABSTRACT

FRANK, HILMER A. (Eastern Regional Research Laboratory, Philadelphia, Pa.). Influence of low incubation temperature on classification of Pseudomonas geniculata. J. Bacteriol. 84:68–71. 1962.—Biochemical and physiological properties of psychrophilic Pseudomonas geniculata isolates were determined at 8 C and at 27 C. No qualitative differences in taxonomically significant properties were observed as a result of incubation temperature. With sufficient incubation time, classification of psychrophilic strains would not be impaired by low temperatures.
