Description of Albibacillus kandeliae CAU 1678

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and rod shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, smooth, entire margin, translucent, and cream after incubation for 3 days on MA at 30° C. In the API 20NE system, positive for cytochrome oxidase, gelatin hydrolysis, urease, and esculin hydrolysis; but negative for indole production, β -galactosidase, nitrate reduction, arginine dihydrolase, and glucose fermentation. Mannitol, malic acid, and phenylacetic acid are utilized as sole carbon sources; while mannose, arabinose, glucose, capric acid, adipic acid, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, and trisodium citrate are not. Strain CAU 1678 (= NIBRBAC000509665) was isolated from a sea sand sample at Geoje , Gyeongsangnam-do, Republic of Korea .
