Description

Gallionella capsiferriformans, formerly known as Gallionella ferruginea, discovered in 1836 by Ehrenbergis, is one of the earliest-described bacteria. It is a stalk-forming and iron-oxidizing bacterium. It is a curved with one polar flagellum, an auto- and mixotrophic bacterium, living in slightly acidic to neutral pH, at temperatures between 5 and 25 degrees C. It is free-living without a stalk under pH 6; stalk production begins at or above pH 6. It has intracytoplasmic membranes. This strain was isolated from iron contaminated groundwater in Michigan (adapted from PMID 8371116). (EBI Integr8)
