Black Maple

The Black Maple (Acer nigrum) is a species in the genus Acer. It is currently classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. Typically found in diverse terrestrial habitats from tropical forests to temperate regions.

Sphingobacterium zeae is a Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented rod first isolated from corn plants, as its species name implies. It inhabits the phyllosphere and rhizosphere of maize and related crops. This aerobic chemoheterotroph degrades plant-derived organic matter and may play roles in plant-associated microbiome functions.
