Description of Hymenobacter edaphi BT 183

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated and rod-shaped. Colonies are red colored after 3 days of incubation on R2 A at 25℃. In the BIOLOG GEN III test, positive for tetrazolium violet; weak positive for lincomycin, D-fructose, glucuronamide and tetrazolium blue; but negative for dextrin, D-maltose, D-trehalose, D-cellobiolose, gentiobiose, sucrose, D-turanose, stachyose, Positive control, pH 6, pH 5, D-raffinose, α -D-lactose, D-melibiose, β -D-glucoside, D-salicin, N -glucosamine, β -mannosamin, N -galactosamin, neuraminic acid, 1% NaCl, 4% NaCl, 8% NaCl, α -D-glucose, D-mannose, D-fructose, D-galactose, 6-methyl-glucose, D-fucose, L-fucose, D-galactose, inosine, sodium lactate, fusidic acid, D-serine, D-sorbitol, D-mannitol, D-arabitol, myo-inositol, glycerol, D-gluose, D-aspartic acid, D-serine, troleandomycin, rifamycin SV, minocycline, gelatin, glyctl-L-proline, L-alanine, L-arginine, L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, L-histidine, pyroglutamic acid, L-serine, guanidine HCl, Niaproof 4, pectin, galacturonic acid, galactonic lactone, D-gluconic acid, D-glucuronic acid, mucic acid, quinic acid, D-saccharic acid, vancomycin, pheylacetic acid, methyl pyruvate, Dlactic acid, L-lactic acid, citric acid, α -glutaric acid, D-malic acid, L-malic acid, succinic acid, nalidixic acid, lithium chloride, potassium tellurite, Tween 40, γ -butryric acid, α -butryric acid, β -butryric acid, α -butyric acid, acetoacetic acid, propionic acid, acetic acid, formic acid, aztreonam, sodium butyrate and sodium bromate. In API 20NE, reduction of nitrates (NO 3 -) to nitrogen (N 2), indole production on tryptophan and gelatin hydrolysis were utilized; esculin hydrolysis, D-glucose, D-maltose were weakly utilized; whereas reduction of nitrates (NO 3 -) to nitrite (NO 2 -), glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, β -galactosidase, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid were not utilized. In the API 32GN test, glycogen and trisodium citrate were utilized; while Lrhamnose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-ribose, inositol, Dsaccharose (sucrose), D-maltose, itaconic acid, suberic acid, sodium malonate, sodium acetate, lactic acid, L-alanine, potassium 5-ketogluconate, 3-hydroxybenzoic acid, L-serine, D-mannitol, D-glucose, salicin, D-melibiose, Dfucose, D-sorbitol, L-arabinose, propionic acid, capric acid, valeric acid, L-histidine, potassium 2-ketogluconate, 3- hydroxybutyric acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and L-proline were not utilized. Strain BT 183 (= NIBRBAC00050 6210) was isolated from a soil sample from Uijeongbu, Gyeonggi, Korea .
