Description of Rhodoplanes tepidicaeni ATS 65

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies grown on R2 A are white, circular, convex and glistening. Oxidase activity is negative. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for nitrate reduction, esculin hydrolysis, urease, and assimilation of β -galactosidase and adipic acid; but negative for indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, gelatinase, and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, malate, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain ATS65 (= NIBRBAC000508881) was isolated from a soil sample collected from Seoul, Republic of Korea (37°34 ʹ 01.4 ʺ N 127°08 ʹ 59.3 ʺ E) .
