Overview


  • Pseudomonas asplenii is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. Pseudomonas asplenii is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Tvrzova2006)



  • This organism has been recovered from bird's nest fern (pathogen). The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 1, i.e., low risk of infection and spread (notes: plant pathogen). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal.
