Abstract
Ad.haer'i.bac.ter. L. v. adhaereo, adhaere to ADHERE to, to stick fast; N.L. masc. n. bacter from Gr. n. baktron rod; N.L. masc. n. Adhaeribacter sticky rod. Bacteroidetes / Cytophagia / Cytophagales / Cytophagaceae / Adhaeribacter Rods, about 0.9–1.7 by 2.8–4.1 µm. In batch culture, mean size is dependent upon the phase of growth. During exponential growth, the rods occur singly, in aggregates, and in chains of up to approximately 4 cells in length. In the stationary phase, the cells occur singly. Cells are Gram‐stain‐negative, non‐sporulating, nonflagellated, and nonmotile. Growth occurs in liquid and on solid interfaces. Strictly aerobic. Chemoheterotrophic. Temperature range for growth, 4–37°C; optimum, 30°C. Limited NaCl tolerance; growth occurs between 0–4.0% (w/v) NaCl. DNA G+C content (mol%): 40.0. Type species: Adhaeribacter aquaticus Rickard, Stead, O'May, Lindsay, Banner, Handley and Gilbert 2005, 827VP.
