Overview

  • Pantoea conspicua is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 55.7%. Pantoea conspicua is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Brady2010)



  • This organism has been recovered from blood, France. Can cause opportunistic infections, particularly in immunocompromised people. A possible gut commensal.
