Marinobacterium maritimum

Marinobacterium maritimum is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, aerobic and motile bacterium from the genus of Marinobacterium which has been isolated from sediments from the Arctic.[1][2][3][4][5] S.I. Paul et al. (2021)[5] isolated, characterized and identified Marinobacterium maritimum from marine sponges of the Saint Martin's Island Area of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh.[5]
