Description of Nocardioides cavernae IMCC 34902

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, non-flagellated, non-pigmented, and rod-shaped. Colonies are circular, round, and entire after incubation for 3 days on R2A at 20℃. Positive for nitrate reduction, urease, esculin hydrolysis, and β-galactosidase, but negative for oxidase, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, and gelatin hydrolysis in API 20NE. D-Glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, and malic acid are utilized as sole carbon sources, but not capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, phenylacetic acid, and potassium gluconate. Strain IMCC34902 (= NNIBR2018143BA555) was isolated from a sediment sample, Daehwa Stream, Ilsan, Gyeonggi-do, Korea.
