Description of Buckleyzyma aurantiaca NH 33

Cells are oval shaped and budding is polar ( Fig. 1 ). Colonies are convex, smooth, and orange-colored after 3 days of incubation on YM agar at 10℃. In the API 20C AUX test, strain NH33 is positive for L- arabinose, N -acetyl-D- glucosamine, D- lactose (bovine origin), D- saccharose (sucrose), D- trehalose, D- melezitose, and D- raffinose; weak positive for glycerol, glucose, 2-keto-D- gluconate, L- arabinose, adonitol, D- galactose, inositol, D- sorbitol, and N -methyl-D- glucoside; and negative for D- glucose, D- xylose, D- cellobiose, and D- maltose.

Strain NH 33 ( KCTC 37082 ) was isolated from the soil collected in Namhansanseong Forest , Gwangju City, Gyeonggi Province, Republic of Korea .
