Meth.yl.o.bac.te'ri.um. M.L. n.methylthe methyl radical; Gr. n.bacteriona small rod; M.L. neut. n.Methylobacteriummethyl bacterium.Proteobacteria / Alphaproteobacteria / Rhizobiales / Methylobacteriaceae / MethylobacteriumRods 0.8–1.2×1.0–8.0 µm that occasionally branch and/or exhibit polar growth.Form pink to orange‐red colonies on methanol salts agar. Stain Gram negative to Gram variable; Gram‐negative cell wall type. Motile by means of a single polar, subpolar, or lateral flagellum.Aerobic, having a strictly respiratory type of metabolism with oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor.Mesophilic.Chemoorganotrophic and facultatively methylotrophic, able to grow with formaldehyde (often at micromolar concentrations), formate, and methanol; some strains grow on methylated amines. Widely distributed in nature.The mol%G+C of the DNA is: 68.0–72.4.Type species:Methylobacterium organophilumPatt, Cole and Hanson 1976, 228.
