Vibrio Harvei

• Gram-negative
• bioluminescent
• marine
• rod-shaped
• motile (via polar flagella),
• facultatively anaerobic
• halophilic (extremophile for high salt)
• competent for both fermentative and respiratory metabolism.
• grow between 4°C and 35°C.
• lacks a LuxI/R quorum sensing system(which fischeri uses), instead employs a hybrid quorum-sensing circuit, detecting its autoinducer via a membrane-bound histidine kinase and using a phosphorelay.
