Description of Undibacterium pigrum WA 5

Cells are Gram negative and rod shaped. Grows on R 2A at 25°C. Colonies are white colored, and circular, raised with entire margin. Based on API20NE, cytochrome oxidase and nitrate reduction are positive, but indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, β-glucosidase, protease and β-galactosidase activities are negative. D-Glucose, L-arabinose, D­mannose, D­mannitol, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, D­maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid are not assimilated. Strain WA5 (= NIBRBA 0000114770) was isolated from freshwater. The 16S rRNA gene sequence accession number is KP196819.
