Assimilation of D(-)malate, malonate, putrescine & D(-)tartrate is variable.
Other substrates of Biotype 100 strips are not assimilated.
Unlike P. brassicacearum, P. thivervalensis strains does not oxidize succinamic acid and does not assimilate benzoate.

Gram-negative motile rods, 1.0-1.5 μm in length, about 0.5 μm diameter.
Forms mucoid colonies with regular margins when grown on TSA and produces
brown-orange difusible pigment. Strictly aerobic, optimum growth temperature 30 ºC.

Oxidase-positive, arginine dihydrolase-positive, produces levan, not pectinolytic.
Reduction of nitrate to nitrite is variable.
Hydrolyses gelatin, but not aesculin.
Acid is produced from sucrose and sorbitol but not from erythritol & mannitol.
