"Pseudomonas azotoformans" is a Gram-negative bacterium that infects cereal grains [cite journal |author=Iizuka, H, and Komogata, K |title=New species of "Pseudomonas" belonged to fluorescent group (Studies on the microorganisms of cereal grains. Part V) |journal=Journal of the Agricultural Chemical Society of Japan |volume=37 |pages=137–141 |year=1963] —especially rice. It is thought to be able to fix nitrogen. [cite journal |author=Xie, "et al." |title=Identification of nif genes in N₂-fixing bacterial strains isolated from rice fields along the Yangtze River Plain |journal=J Basic Microbiol |volume=46 |issue=1 |pages=56–63 |year=2006 |pmid=16463319 |doi=10.1002/jobm.200510513] Based on 16S rRNA analysis, "P. azotoformans" has been placed in the "P. fluorescens" group. [cite journal |author=Anzai, "et al." |title=Phylogenetic affiliation of the pseudomonads based on 16S rRNA sequence |journal=Int J Syst Evol Microbiol |volume=50 (Pt 4) |pages=1563–89 |year=2000, Jul |pmid=10939664]
