Description of Streptomyces chumphonensis R23HP9

The cells are Gram-stain-positive, non-flagellated, and rod-shaped. The colonies are circular, umbonate, entire, and white-colored after incubating for 7 days on R2 A at 20℃. They are negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, β -galactosidase and cytochrome oxidase in API 20NE. D- glucose is utilized as a sole carbon source; but L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are not. Strain R23 HP9 (= HNIBRBA5984) was isolated from a halophyte samplefrom Amtaedo Island (34°51 ʹ 7.58 ʺ N, 126°6 ʹ 4.47 ʺ E), Jeollanam-do, Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence is PP067164 .
