Description of Rhizomicrobium palustre P4

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies grown on R2 A agar are white, circular, opaque and smooth. Oxidase activity is negative. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for β -galactosidase; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, esculin hydrolysis, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatinase, and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malate, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain P 4 (= NIBRBAC000508935) was isolated from a soil sample collected from Goyang, Republic of Korea (37°40 ʹ 27.9 ʺ N 126°48 ʹ 20.5 ʺ E) .
