Roseomonas oryzae is a species of Gram negative, strictly aerobic, coccobacilli-shaped, pale pink-colored bacterium. It was first isolated from rice paddy rhizosphere soil in Western Ghats, Kankumbi, India . The species name is derived from Latin oryzae (of rice).

Two other species of Roseomonas have been isolated from soil rhizosphere: R. hibiscisoli and R. rhizosphaerae.[1][2]

The optimum growth temperature for R. oryzae is 30 °C, but can grow in the 4-45 °C range. The optimum pH is 7.0, and can grow in pH 6.0-7.5.[3]
