Description of Vibrio cholerae IMCC 25664

Cells are Gram-staining-negative, rod, flagellated, and aerobic. Colonies grown on R2A are circular, convex, entire, and white-yellow pigmented. Positive for esculin hydrolysis, gelatinase, and β -galactosidase in API 20NE, but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, and urease. D-Glucose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, and malic acidare utilized. Does not utilize L-arabinose, D-mannose, gluconic acid, capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain IMCC25664 displays the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Vibrio cholerae CECT 514 T (100%). Strain IMCC25664 (= IHBA_2) was isolated from a freshwater sample of Lake Chungju. The GenBank accession number of 16S rRNA gene sequence is KY053188.
