Description of Pseudomonas kurunegalensis 2HN26-16

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, flagellated, and rod-shaped. Colonies are irregular, flat, undulate, and white after incubation for 3 days on Marine Agar at 25℃. The strain is positive for arginine dihydrolase, citrate utilization, and acetoin production; but negative for β -galactosidase, lysine decarboxylase, ornithine decarboxylase, H2S production, urease, tryptophan deaminase, indole production, and gelatinase as determined by API 20E testing. Strain 2HN26-16 was isolated from the rhizosphere soils of a halophyte collected from Shinjangri (34°50 ʹ 11.57 ʺ N 126°21 ʹ 55.05 ʺ E), Shinan-gun , Jeollanam-do, Korea. The GenBank accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence is OR726123 .
