Description of Alsobacter soli IMCC 34758

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, facultative anaerobic, non-flagellated, and rod-shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, entire, and white-colored after incubation for 3 days on R2A at 20℃. Negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, β-galactosidase, and cytochrome oxidase in API 20NE. Phenylacetic acid is utilized as a sole carbon source, but not D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N- acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, and trisodium citrate. Strain IMCC34758 (= NNIBR2020642BA9) was isolated from a sediment sample, Janghang Wetland, Ilsan, Gyeonggi-do, Korea.
