description
Cells are Gram-staining-negative, flagellated, non-pigmented, and rod-shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, entire, and bright yellow-colored after 7 days of incubation on MA at 30 ℃. Positive for urease, gelatinase, and cytochrome oxidase, but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, esculin hydrolysis, and β - galactosidase in the API 20 NE test. D-Glucose, D-maltose, malic acid, and phenylacetic acid are utilized, but L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N - acetylglucosamine, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, and trisodium citrate are not utilized. Strain JMS- 19 (= NIBRBAC 000498665) was isolated from a seaweed, Marado, Jeju, Korea.
