H. turkmenica cells occur mostly as single cells, rarely in pairs or tetrads. It is described as ovoid to coccoid, 1.5-2 um in diameter, but can also be rod-shaped. It has neither spores, nor flagella, nor lipid granules. Colonies are pigmented red or light pink due of the presence of C(5O)-carotenoids. It requires at least 2 M NaCl, and the optimal temperature growth is 51 degrees Celsius. (Adapted from: PMID 21304683)."xsd:string |
