Description of Gordonia westfalica I4-8

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. When grown on R2A plates at 30℃ for 3 days, colonies are pale orange, round, entire, and convex. In the API 20NE test, the cells showed positive results for the hydrolysis of urea; and the assimilation of D- mannitol, malate, and trisodium citrate. Conversely, they had negative results for nitrate reaction; indole production; D- glucose fermentation; arginine, esculin, gelatin, and β -galactosidase hydrolysis; and D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, N -acetyl- β -glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium glutamate, caprate, adipate, and phenylacetic acid assimilation. Strain I4-8 (NIBRBAC000508777) was isolated from Godeok Waterfront Ecological Park, Republic of Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain I4-8 is MW164958.

Description of Streptomyces polaris I4-20

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. When grown on R2A plates at 30℃ for 3 days, colonies are white, filamentous, and umbonate. In the API 20NE test, the cells showed positive results for the hydrolysis of esculin; and the assimilation of D- glucose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl- β -glucosamine, and potassium glutamate. Conversely, they had negative results for nitrate reaction; indole production; D- glucose fermentation; arginine, urea, gelatin, and β -galactosidase hydrolysis; and L- arabinose, D- maltose, caprate, adipate, malate, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid assimilation. Strain I4-10 (NIBRBAC000508778) was isolated from Godeok Waterfront Ecological Park, Republic of Korea. The Gen Bank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain I4-20 is MW164959.
