Abstract | Two aerobic, gram-negative asporogenous, red-pigmented, rod-shaped bacterial strains were isolated from oil sardine (Sardinella longiceps) . Their morphological, biochemical and growth characteristics are reported . The pigment was identified to be a prodigiosene . The strains were found to resemble Serratia plyinuthica . Effect of temperature and certain carbohydrates on pigmentation was also studied . Iron was found to inhibit pigmentation, and mannitol or sorbitol removed such inhibition. |
