description
Cells are Gram negative and rod shaped. Grows on TSA at 30 ° C. Colonies are white colored, and undulate, smooth. Based on API 20 NE, cytochrome oxidase, β-glucosidase, protease and β-galactosidase activities are positive, but nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase and urease activities are negative. D-Glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, Dmannitol, N acetylglucosamine, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid are assimilated, but not D-maltose. Strain LR- 14 (= NIBRBA 0000114808) was isolated from freshwater pond. The 16 S rRNA gene sequence accession number is KP 182165.
