Morphology | Angulomicrobium tetraedrale |
CELLULAR |
Staining | Gram-negative |
Morphology | Unicellular bacterium, polygonal cells with radial symmetry ranging in dimensions from 1.1-1.5 um. The shape of the cells is tetrahedral or mushroom-like. Flat triangular bacteria are provisionally included within the genus |
Motility | Nonmotile. |
Specialized structures | . Cells divide by budding. Buds are produced on the tetrahedron directly on the conical point of elongation of the mother cell, a short tube connecting two cells.. Cells lack prosthecae, or lamellated membranous structures, or gas vacuoles. |
