Gram-negative rods, surrounded by a thick capsule, 0.6-0.8 x 1.8-2.8 μm. Motile. Non-
sporeforming. Accumulate poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate.
sporeforming. Accumulate poly-beta-hydroxybutyrate.
Colonies are pale yellow, circular, smooth and convex with entire edges, 1.2-1.8 mm
in diameter on YEM agar after 48 h of incubation at 25 ºC. Growth occurs at 10-37 ºC
(optimum, 25-30 ºC), at pH 4.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 6.0-7.0) and with 0-2% (w/v) NaCl
(optimum growth in the absence of NaCl). Aerobic.
