Description of Massilia horti 18JY6­4

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, oval shaped, and flagellated. After 3 days at 25℃ on R2 A medium, colonies are round, flat, and white colored. The result from the API 20NE tests show positive for esculin hydrolysis, cytochrome oxidase, β ­galactosidase, and gelatinase; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, and urease. D- Mannitol, malic acid, and phenylacetic acid are utilized; but not D- mannose, D- maltose, D- glucose, L- arabinose, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, potassium gluconate, adipic acid, capric acid, and trisodium citrate. Strain 18JY6­ 4 (= NIBRBAC000508863 ) was isolated from soil in Jungwon­gu (37°28 ʹ 17.4 ʺ N, 127°10 ʹ 38.3 ʺ E), Seongnamsi , Gyeonggi­do, Korea. The GeneBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain is. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain 18JY6­4 have been deposited in GenBank under accession numbers OK001697 .
