forming.
Colonies on YES medium are circular, convex and transparent, with 1.5- 2.0 mm
diameter after 24 h incubation at 24 ºC. Growth occurs at 4-40 ºC, optimally at 20-35
ºC. Grows at pH 5.5-9 (optimally at pH 6-8 and in the presence of 0-8% (w/v) NaCl
(optimally in 0-4% NaCl). Facultatively anaerobic.
