Description of Flavobacterium maotaiense AS 316

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. Colonies are round, entire, raised, and yellow after incubation for 3 days on R2A at 28°C. In the API 20NE system, positive for cytochrome oxidase; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose acidification, arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, and β -galactosidase. D-Mannose and D-maltose are utilized as sole carbon sources; while D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, citrate, and phenyl-acetate are not. Strain AS 316 (= NIBRBAC000509508) was isolated from a wetland sample at Anseong, Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea.
