Description of Seohaeicola nanhaiensis CAU 1648

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellat- ed and rod shaped. Colonies grown on marine agar are cream, punctiform entire, convex, smooth and translu- cent. Oxidase activity is positive. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for esculin hydrolysis and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannitol, potassium gluconate, adipic acid, malate and phenylacetic acid; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatinase, β -galactosidase, and assimilation of D- mannose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, capric acid and trisodium citrate. Strain CAU 1648 (= NIBRBAC000508830) was isolated from a seawater sample collected from Ganghwa , Republic of Korea (37°42 ʹ 01.1 ʺ N 126°22 ʹ 44.6 ʺ E) .
