Description of Rosenbergiella epipactidis LPB 0301

The cells are gram-negative, non-flagellated, and coccishaped. The colonies are yellow in color, circular, convex, and entire after incubation on R2A plates at 25℃ for 3 days under aerobic conditions. It is positive for glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, esculin hydrolysis, β-galactosidase, and utilization of glucose, arabinose, mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine (weak), potassium gluconate, trisodium citrate (weak), and phenylacetic acid; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, urease, gelatinase, utilization of mannose, maltose, capric acid, adipic acid, and malic acid, and cytochrome oxidase, per the analysis using the API 20NE kit. Strain LPB0301 (= NIBR BAC000503362) was isolated from sand in Hasidong-ri, Gangdong-myeon, Gangneung-si, Gangwon-do, Republic of Korea.
