Description of Marmoricola mangrovicus HMG2989

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. When grown on R2A plates at 30℃ for 3 days, colonies are cream colored, circular, convex, and smooth. In the API 20NE test, the cells showed positive results for gelatin hydrolysis; and D- glucose, D- mannose, L- arabinose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl- β -glucosamine, potassium glutamate, and phenylacetic acid assimilation. Conversely, they had negative results for nitrate reaction; indole production; D- glucose fermentation; arginine, urea, esculin, and β -galactosidase hydrolysis; and D- maltose, caprate, adipate, malate, and trisodium citrate assimilation. Strain HMG2989 (NIBRBAC000508763) was isolated from a pine cone at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, Cheoin-gu, Yongin-si, Republic of Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain HMG 2989 is OL347565.
