Gibbsiella Brady et al. 2011
General information
Description and emendation
Gram-negative short rods (0.9 × 1-1.5 μm), facultatively anaerobic, oxidase negative and catalase positive. Cells occur singly, in pairs or in groups of four, and possess very fine fimbriae but no flagella. Colonies are white to cream on nutrient agar, round, convex and smooth with entire margins. Strains can grow at temperatures between 10 and 40°C. Positive for β-galactosidase activity but negative for H2S, urease, indole, acetoin and gelatinase production. Citrate is utilized and nitrate is reduced to nitrite. Arginine dihydrolase, lysine decarboxylase, ornithine decarboxylase and tryptophan deaminase activity are all negative. Acid is produced from: glycerol, L-arabinose, D-ribose, D-xylose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-fructose, D-mannose, L-sorbose, L-rhamnose, inositol, D-mannitol, D-sorbitol, α-methyl-D-glucoside, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, arbutin, aesculin, ferric citrate, salicin, D-maltose, D-melibiose, D-saccharose, D-trehalose, D-raffinose, D-turanose and D-arabitol. The following carbon sources are utilized at 28°C: dextrin, glycogen, Tween 40, Tween 80, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, L-arabinose, D-arabitol, D-fructose, L-fucose, D-galactose, gentiobiose, α-D-glucose, inositol, α-D-lactose, maltose, D-mannitol, D-mannose, D-melibiose, β-methyl-D-glucoside, D-psicose, D-raffinose, L-rhamnose, D-sorbitol, sucrose, D-trehalose, turanose, pyruvic acid methyl ester, succinic acid mono-methyl ester, acetic acid, citric acid, D-gluconic acid, α-ketoglutaric acid, DL-lactic acid, succinic acid, bromosuccinic acid, L-aspartic acid, glycerol and α-D-glucose-1-phosphate. The G+C content ranges from 56.0 to 56.4 mol%.
1: The DNA G+C content ranges from 56.0 to 58.7 mol%.
2: Gram-negative rods (0.5-1.0 × 1.0-3.0 μm), facultatively anaerobic, oxidase negative and catalase positive. Cells occur singly, in pairs or in groups of four, and are non-motile. Colonies are white to cream on nutrient agar, round, convex and smooth with entire margins. Strains can grow at temperatures between 4 and 40°C, growth was not observed at less than 4°C. Positive for β-galactosidase activity but negative for H2S, urease, indole and gelatinase production. Acetoin production is variable. Citrate is utilized and nitrate is reduced to nitrite. Arginine dihydrolase, lysine decarboxylase, ornithine decarboxylase and tryptophan deaminase activity are all negative. Acid is produced from: glycerol, L-arabinose, D-ribose, D-xylose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-fructose, D-mannose, L-sorbose, L-rhamnose, D-mannitol, D-sorbitol, α-methyl-D-glucoside, arbutin, esculin ferric citrate, salicin, D-maltose, D-saccharose, D-trehalose, D-turanose and D-arabitol. The following carbon sources are utilized at 28°C: dextrin, Tween 80, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, L-arabinose, D-arabitol, D-cellobiose, D-fructose, D-galactose, gentiobiose, α-D-glucose, m-inositol, α-D-lactose, maltose, D-mannitol, D-mannose, β-methyl-D-glucoside, D-psicose, D-raffinose, L-rhamnose, D-sorbitol, sucrose, D-trehalose, turanose, pyruvic acid methyl ester, succinic acid mono-methyl ester, acetic acid, citric acid, D-gluconic acid, α-ketoglutaric acid, d, l-lactic acid, succinic acid, bromosuccinic acid, L-aspartic acid, glycerol and α-D-glucose-1-phosphate. The G+C content ranges from 54.8 to 58.7 mol%.
