description
Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, non-flagellated, rod-shaped bacterium (0.4 - 0.6 μm wide, 0.8 - 1.0 μm long). Colonies grown R 2 A agar are pale yellow, cicular, convex, and smooth. Oxidase activity is positive. In the API 20 NE test, cells are positive for indole production; hydrolysis of aesculine and gelatin; and assimilation of N - acetyl-glucosamine, but negative for nitrate reduction; glucose fermentation; activity of arginine dihydrolase, urease, and β - galactosidase; and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain HMF 6096 (= NIBRBAC 000503110) was isolated from a seawater sample collected from Jeju, Republic of Korea (33 ° 29 ʹ 50.0 ʺ N, 126 ° 27 ʹ 06.1 ʺ E).
