Pseudomonas veronii is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, fluorescent, motile bacterium isolated from natural springs in France[1]. It may be used for bioremediation of contaminated soils, as it has been shown to degrade a variety of simple aromatic organic compounds[2][3]. Based on 16S rRNA analysis, P. veronii has been placed in the P. fluorescens group[4].
