Description of Halomonas venusta BIM 5

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies are yellowish-white colored after incubation for 3 days on MA at 25° C. In the API 20NE system, positive for nitrate reduction, glucose fermentation, and esculin hydrolysis; but negative for indole production, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatin hydrolysis, β -galactosidase, and cytochrome oxidase. D-Glucose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are utilized as sole carbon sources; while L-arabinose and capric acid. Strain BIM5 (= NIBRBAC000509648) was isolated from a soil sample at Seocheon-gun , Chungcheongnam-do, Republic of Korea .
