Abstract excerpt
Two novel bacterial strains, designated DOKDO 025(T) and DOKDO 023(T), were isolated on Dokdo Island, Korea, from the rhizosphere of the brown alga Ecklonia kurome. The strains were subjected to a polyphasic taxonomy study and were found to be Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-motile and orange-coloured. The isolates shared 96.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. They showed 93.8-95.6 % 16S rRNA gene...
