endozoicomonas acroporae sp. nov., isolated from acropora coral. | strain acr-14t, isolated from acropora coral, was characterized by using a polyphasic taxonomy approach. cells of strain acr-14t were gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, poly-β-hydroxybutyrate-accumulating, rod-shaped and formed creamy white colonies. optimal growth occurred at 30 °c, ph 7 and in the presence of 2 % nacl. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna gene sequences showed that strain acr-14t belonged to the genus endozoicomonas and was most closely related to endozoicomonas atri ... | 2017 | 28879847 |
