Description of Streptomyces lavendulae subsp. lavendulae PS 18

Cells are Gram-stain-positive and aerobic. When grown on R2A plates at 30℃ for 3 days, colonies are white and branched, and they form an aerial mycelium. In the API 20NE system, the cells showed positive results for the hydrolysis of esculin; assimilation of D- glucose, N - acetyl- β -glucosamine, potassium glutamate, and malate. Conversely, they had negative results for nitrate reaction; indole production; D- glucose fermentation; arginine, urea, gelatin, and β -galactosidase hydrolysis; and L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, D- maltose, caprate, adipate, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid assimilation. Strain PS18 (= NIBRBAC000508783) was isolated from a wetland in Seoul, Republic of Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain PS18 is MW164964.
