Description of Noviherbaspirillum aerium BT 33

Cells are Gram­stain­negative, oval shaped, and nonflagellated. After 3 days at 25℃ on R2 A medium, colonies are semi­transparent, circular, smooth, and orange colored. The result from the API 20NE tests show positive for esculin hydrolysis and cytochrome oxidase; but negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, β ­galactosidase, and gelatinase. D- Mannose, D- mannitol, D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- maltose, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, potassium gluconate, adipic acid, malic acid, capric acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are not utilized. Strain BT33 (= NIBRBAC000508889 ) was isolated from soil in Ganeung­dong (37°44 ʹ 15.0 ʺ N, 127°01 ʹ 02.2 ʺ E), Uijeongbu­si , Gyeonggi­do, Korea. The GeneBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain is. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain BT33 have been deposited in GenBank under accession numbers OK001824 .
