description
Cells are Gram-stain-positive and rod-shaped. Colonies are punctiform, convex, smooth and yellow colored after incubation for 3 - 5 days on MA at 30 ℃. Weakly positive for esculin hydrolysis; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatin hydrolysis, β-galactosidase and cytochrome oxidase. D-Glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, potassium gluconate, adipic acid and malic acid are utilized as sole carbon sources; but not N - acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, capric acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain CAU 1610 (= NIBRBAC 0005 06271) was isolated from a sea sediment sample from Goseong-gun, Gangwon-do. The GenBank accession number for the 16 S rRNA gene sequence of strain CAU 1610 is MW 012620.
