Description of Phyllobacterium loti BT 831

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. Colonies are circular, slightly, convex, glistening, and white after incubation for 3 days on R2A at 25°C. In the API 20NE system, positive for cytochrome oxidase, urease, gelatin hydrolysis, glucose fermentation; but negative for β -galactosidase, arginine dihydrolase, esculin hydrolysis, indole production, and nitrate reduction. Potassium gluconate, malic acid, and N -acetyl-glucosamine are utilized as sole carbon sources; while mannitol, capric acid, glucose, mannose, arabinose, D-maltose, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are not. Strain BT831 (= NIBRBAC000509700) was isolated from a soil sample at Hoengseong-gun, Gangwon-do, Republic of Korea.
