Growth Parameters Azorhizobium caulinodans
PHYSIOLOGICAL  
Tropism  
Oxygen obligate aerobe
pH  
Temperature  
Requirements  
Products grow well on N2 if vitamins present, even in a nitrogen free medium, only glucose is used as a substrae among the sugars. Organic acids such as lactate, or succinate support growth. Malonate is used. Starch is not hydrolysed. Cells can grow on DL-proline
Enzymes oxidase positive, catalase positive, urease negative
Unique features FIX NITROGEN UNDER MICROAEROPHILIC CONDITIONS
ENVIRONMENTAL  
Habitat  
Lifestyle strains nodulated the roots and stems of Sesbania rostrata
