Description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-positive rods, 0.8-1.2 x 4-8 µm. Motile by peritrichous flagella. Produce central /
subterminal, ellipsoidal spores in swollen sporangia.
subterminal, ellipsoidal spores in swollen sporangia.
Colonies are white/white-cream and convex, 0.9-2.3 mm in diameter. Aerobic and
anaerobic growth. Grow in 5% NaCl, but not in 6% NaCl media. Growth temperature
20-55 ºC, optimum 30-37 ºC. Can grow at pH 5-9, optimum 6-7. Isolated on CMC agar
medium (carboxymethylcellulose) and cultivated on TSA.
