“…These results agreed with the ideal phenotype of P. maltophilia,defined by a total often selected characters by Stanier et alP) We thus identified the strains of this group as P. maltophilia Hugh and Ryschenkow 1961. Although these strains were isolated from enrichments with aniline as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen, and fresh isolates grew well on the medium, they readily lost the ability to assimilate aniline, on storage or when grown on the nutrient agar. Iizuka and Komagata 33 ) also stated that fresh isolates of P. maltophilia assimilated hydrocarbons as a sole carbon source, but rapidly lost the activity on sub-culturing on a nutrient agar slant.…”

“…The Stenotrophomonas genus was described with the species Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (Palleroni & Bradbury, 1993), previously called Pseudomonas maltophilia (Hugh & Ryschenko, 1961) and later changed to Xanthomonas maltophilia . Recently, Drancourt et al (1997) proposed a new species ; Stenotrophomonas africana, which is biochemically identical to S. maltophilia except for its …”

A polyphasic taxonomic study was performed on 16 Stenotrophomonas strains from environmental and clinical sources. A group of three plant-associated isolates were shown to be phenotypically different from the other strains. This group formed a separate physiological cluster (B1) with 42 % heterogeneity to the other isolates. The defining characteristics of the new species were as follows : growth at 4 mC and the absence of growth at 40 mC ; the utilization of xylose as a carbon source ; lower osmolytic tolerance ( 4 5 % NaCl, w/v), although the isolates can produce trehalose and glucosylglycerol as osmoprotective substances ; the absence of lipase and β-glucosidase production ; and antifungal activity against plant-pathogenic fungi. The wholecell fatty acid profile of this group was different and characterized by the main fatty acids iso-C 15 :0 and anteiso-C 15 :0 . Numerical analysis of the fatty acid profiles of the strains examined supports the differentiation of the physiological B1 group. By 16S rDNA analysis, three clusters were distinguished. The three strains of the B1 group formed a separate environmental cluster (E1). They showed a mean similarity of 99 5 % within the cluster, and differed from strains of a second environmental cluster (E2) by 2 2 % and from the clinical cluster (C) by about 3 0 %. DNA-DNA hybridization data supported the taxonomic differentiation. All results led to the proposal of a new species, Stenotrophomonas rhizophila sp. nov., with strain e-p10 T

“…The environmental source of S. maltophilia was not determined, but this bacterium has been isolated from water, sewage, soil, and plants. 2,6 The results of this investigation indicate that S. maltophilia is a possible pathogen in West African dwarf crocodiles. Whether this bacterium is a primary or an opportunistic pathogen remains to be determined.…”

“…In 1 report, S. maltophilia was considered to be the cause of fleece rot in sheep. 9 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia has been isolated from fish, 6 lizards, frogs, 5 and captive snakes, 3 but it was never specifically associated with disease in these species. The present report includes laboratory findings indicative of acute septicemia associated with S. maltophilia in a crocodile.…”
