| Abstract |
A facultatively psychrophilic bacterium, previously described as Pseudomonas sp. strain E-3, has been reassigned by phenotypic characterization, chemotaxonomic analysis, DNA-DNA hybridization, and 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic analysis. The organism was a gram-negative, aerobic. straight rod with polar flagella. It was catalase positive and oxidase positive, able to grow at -1 degree C but not at 40 degree C, and produced acid from D-glucose under aerobic conditions. The major isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-9, and the DNA G + C content was 57.2 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing indicated that the bacterium is a member of the genus Pseudomonas and was closest to Pseudomonas fragi. Determination of the DNA-DNA relatedness between strain E-3 and P. fragi revealed too low a level of homology (47.9%-51.3%) to identify them as the same species. On the basis of phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic analysis, and DNA-DNA relatedness data, it is concluded that strain E-3 represents an individual species. Accordingly, the name Pseudomonas psychrophila is proposed. The type strain is E-3T (= JCM 10889). |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 April 2007.
All research outputs
#8,517,130
of 25,392,205 outputs
Outputs from Extremophiles
#235
of 818 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#15,192
of 44,732 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Extremophiles
#1
of 5 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,392,205 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 818 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.3. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 44,732 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 5 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
