Description of Glutamicibacter arilaitensis WD 9

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, non-flagellated, non-pigmented, and rod-coccus shaped. Colonies are circular, smooth, convex, opaque, and pale-yellow colored after 2 days on MA at 25°C. Nitrate is reduced and esculin is hydrolyzed. The strain shows positive reactions for enzyme activities of gelatinase and β -galactosidase, whereas the strain shows negative reactions for enzyme activities of arginine dihydrolase, urease, and oxidase. Indole is not produced and glucose is not fermented. The strain utilizes D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid, whereas the strain does not utilize D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, and capric acid. Strain WD9 (= NIBRBAC000501125) was isolated from seawater, Wando, Jeollanam Province, Korea.
