Description of Algoriphagus litoralis 2HN11-44

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-flagellat- ed, and rod-shaped. Colonies are circular, raised, entire, and orange after incubation for 3 days on R2 A Agar (3% sea salt) at 25℃. The strain is positive for β -galactosidase, tryptophan deaminase, and acetoin production; but negative for arginine dihydrolase, lysine decarboxylase, ornithine decarboxylase, citrate utilization, H2S production, urease, gelatinase, and indole production as determined by API 20E testing. Strain 2HN11-44 was isolated from seawater collected from the Gusuri coastal area (35° 21 ʹ 50.12 ʺ N 126°25 ʹ 19.98 ʺ E), Yeonggwang-gun , Jeollanam-do, Korea. The GenBank accession number for the 16S rRNA gene sequence is OR726116 .
