A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacterium, designated B1 , was isolated from deep-sea sediment collected from the South Atlantic Ocean. Cells of strain B1 grew in medium containing 0.5-6.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 1.0-2.0 %), at pH 5.5-7.5 (optimum pH 7.0) and at 15-37 °C (opt...
