Description of Simiduia agrarivorans BK 30

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and cocci-shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, entire, and yellow-colored after incubation for 3 days on MA at 20℃. Positive for nitrates reduction, gelatin hydrolysis, and cytochrome oxidase; but negative for indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine, urease, esculin hydrolysis, and β -galactosidase in API 20NE. D- Maltose are utilized as a sole carbon source; but not D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain BK30 (= HNIBRBA370) was isolated from the seawater collected off Jaeun-do (34°51 ʹ 00 ʺ N, 126°02 ʹ 18 ʺ E), Shinan , Jeollanam-do, Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain BK30 is OL742673 .
