Description of Alkalihalobacillus nanhaiisediminis CAU 1694

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, motile with flagella, and rod-shaped. Colonies are creamy white-colored, circular, smooth, entire margin, flat, and opaque after incubation for 3 days on MA plates at 30° C. In the API 20NE system, positive for esculin hydrolysis; but negative for nitrate reaction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatin hydrolysis, and β -galactosidase. Malic acid is utilized as a sole carbon source; while D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl- β -glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium glutamate, capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are not. Strain CAU 1694 (= NIBRBAC000509678) was isolated from a mud sample at Ansan , Gyeonggi-do, Republic of Korea .
