Shewanella decolorationis

Shewanella decolorationis is a gram-negative, dye-decolorizing bacterium first isolated from activated sludge of a waste-water treatment plant. It is motile by means of a single polar flagellum. The type strain is S12T (=CCTCC M 203093T =IAM 15094T).[1] Its genome has been sequenced.[2]
