Description of Grimontia sedimenti KG 16

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, flagellated, and rod-shaped. Colonies are circular, entire, opaque, and cream-colored after incubation for 3 days on MA at 20℃. Positive for nitrates reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, β -galactosidase, and cytochrome oxidase; but negative for arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, and gelatin hydrolysis in API 20NE. D- Glucose, D- mannose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, and malic acid are utilized as a sole carbon source; but not L- arabinose, D- mannitol, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain KG16 (= HNIBRBA506) was isolated from seawater collected off Geumgap (34°23 ʹ 46 ʺ N, 126°16 ʹ 32 ʺ E), Jindo , Jeollanam-do, Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain KG16 is OL742677 .
