Basonym:
Polynucleobacter necessarius Hahn et al. 2009. Four strains currently classified as Polynucleobacter necessarius subsp.
asymbioticus
were reclassified as Polynucleobacter asymbioticus comb. nov., Polynucleobacter duraquae sp. nov.,
Polynucleobacter yangtzensis sp. nov. and Polynucleobacter sinensis sp. nov.
Gram-negative short rods, 0.4-0.5 x 0.9-2.9 μm. Usually non-motile.
Grows on NSY, R2A, Luria–Bertani and peptone media. Colonies on NSY agar are
non-pigmented, circular and convex with smooth surface. Growth occurs at 5-30 ºC
and in 0-0.3% (w/v) NaCl. Aerobic.
Isolated from alkaline Lake Mondsee.
Undetermined.
