Description of Microbacterium oxydans WR-M1Y

Cells are Gram-staining-positive, non-flagellated and rod­shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, glistening and orange/yellow-colored after 3 days on MA at 25℃. Positive reactions are obtained for esculin hydrolysis, gelatinase and β-galactosidase in API 20NE, and negative reactions are obtained for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase and urease. D­glucose, D­mannose, D­mannitol, D­maltose and potassium gluconate are utilized. Does not utilize L­arabinose, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain WR­M1Y (= NIBRBA0000113997) was isolated from a soil sample in field of reeds, Wando, Korea.
