Pseudomonas abietaniphila is a Gram-negative soil bacterium that grows on pulp mill effluents with resin acids.{{cite journal |author=Mohn|title=Physiological and phylogenetic diversity of bacteria growing on resin acids |journal=Syst Appl Microbiol |volume=22 |issue=1 |pages=68–78 |date=Feb 1999 |pmid=10188280 |doi=10.1016/S0723-2020(99)80029-0|display-authors=etal}} It is able to thrive in such environments by using tricyclic diterpenoids as a carbon source.{{cite journal |vauthors=Martin VJ, Yu Z, Mohn WW |title=Recent advances in understanding resin acid biodegradation: microbial diversity and metabolism |journal=Arch Microbiol |volume=172 |issue=3 |pages=131–138 |date=Sep 1999 |pmid=10460883 |doi=10.1007/s002030050752|s2cid=1260870 }} It was first isolated in Canada.
