Mangrovibacterium lignilyticum

Description of Mangrovibacterium lignilyticum M23HP108

The cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and rod-shaped. The colonies are circular, convex, entire, and orange-red colored after incubating for 7 days on MA at 20℃. They are positive for esculin hydrolysis, β -galactosidase and cytochrome oxidase; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, and gelatin hydrolysis in API 20NE. D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are not utilized as sole carbon sources. Strain M23HP108 (= HNIBRBA6165) was isolated from a halophyte sample from Gadeokdo Island (35°03 ʹ 30.4 ʺ N, 128°50 ʹ 44.9 ʺ E), Busan, Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence is OR863764 GoogleMaps .
