IDIOMARINA XIAMENENSIS
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Idiomarina |
| Species: | Idiomarina xiamenensis |
| Description: | Cells are rod-shaped, 1.2–1.7 µm long and 0.4–0.6 µm wide, motile by one polar flagellum (Supplementary Fig. S1). Positive for oxidase, catalase (weak), urease, β-glucosidase (aesculin hydrolysis), gelatinase and arginine dihydrolase, but negative for Gram reaction, amylase, indole production, lipase (Tween 80), β-galactosidase, H 2S production and reduction of nitrate to nitrite. On MA, forms smooth, grey colonies with regular edges, 1–2 mm in diameter after 72 h of incubation at 28 °C. Grows in 0–15 % NaCl (optimum 1–3 %), at 4–42 °C (optimum 25 °C) and at pH 6–10 (optimum pH 7–8). |
