Description of Ochrobactrum pseudogrignonense RB 1-8

Cells are Gram-staining-negative, non-flagellated, rodshaped, and aerobic. Colonies are round, convex, and white colored after 3 days on R2A at 25℃. Positive for oxidase. Does not hydrolyze esculin and gelatin. Does not reduces nitrate to nitrite. Cannot produce acid from glucose. Does not produce indole. Possesses activity of urease, but not arginine dihydrolase and β -galactosidase. Assimilates glucose, arabinose, mannose, mannitol, and malic acid, but not N -acetyl-glucosamine, maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain RB1-8 (= NNIBR2020641BA462) was isolated from water of the Nakdong River. The GenBank accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence is MT871974.
