Description of Paenibacillus lupini 18JY14-16

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated, and short rod-shaped. Colonies are white-colored after 3 days of incubation on R2A at 25℃. In API 20NE system, positive for arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, β-galactosidase, L-arabinose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, malic acid, and trisodium citrate. Weak positive for D-glucose, D-mannose, and adipic acid. Negative for nitrate reduction, glucose fermentation, indole production, gelatin hydrolysis, capric acid and phenylacetic acid as carbon sources.

In API 32GN system, positive for L-rhamnose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-ribose, inositol, D-saccharose (sucrose), D-maltose, sodium acetate, lactic acid, L-alanine, potassium 5-ketogluconate, glycogen, D-mannitol, D-glucose, salicin, D-melibiose, D-fucose, D-sorbitol, L-arabinose, trisodium citrate, L-histidine, potassium 2-ketogluconate and 3-hydroxybutyric acid. Negative for suberic acid, itaconic acid, sodium malonate, L-serine, propionic acid, capric acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, and L-proline. 3-Hydroxybenzoic acid, valeric acid. Cells show resistance to UV radiation. Strain 18JY14- 16 (= NIBRBAC0000116016) was isolated from a soil sample in Korea.
