Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellate, and rod shaped. Colonies are cream colored after incubation for 3 days on MA at 25°C. In the API 20NE system, positive for esculin hydrolysis, β -galactosidase, and cytochrome oxidase; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, and gelatin hydrolysis. D-Glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, D-maltose, malic acid, and trisodium citrate are utilized as sole carbon sources; while potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, and phenylacetic acid are not. Strain HMG3308 (= NIBRBAC000509551) was isolated from a soil sample at Inan-gun, Jeollanam-do, Republic of Korea.
