Description of Rhizobium endophyticum TS 35

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. Colonies are round, entire, convex, and cream after incubation for 3 days on R2 A at 28° C. In the API 20NE system, positive for cytochrome oxidase, glucose fermentation, esculin hydrolysis, urease, and β -galactosidase; but negative for indole production, gelatin hydrolysis, nitrate reduction, and arginine dihydrolase. Glucose, mannitol, mannose, arabinose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, capric acid, and malic acid are utilized as sole carbon sources; while adipic acid, trisodium citrate, phenylacetic acid, and potassium gluconate are not. Strain TS 35 (= NIBRBAC000509497) was isolated from a wetland sample at Seoul, Republic of Korea .
