Abstract excerpt
A novel bacterium (strain K4(T)) belonging to the genus Sphingomonas was isolated from tidal flat sediment in Korea. Its morphology, physiology, biochemical features and 16S rRNA gene sequence were characterized. Colonies of this strain are yellow in colour and the cells are rod-shaped, exhibiting negative Gram staining. The strain grows at 0-5 % (w/v) NaCl and 20-35 degrees C, with optimal growth occurring at 0...
