Species description is based on a single isolate.
Gram-negative rods, 0.2-0.4 x 1.6-1.8 µm. Motile.
Colonies on nutrient agar are convex with entire edges, smooth, translucent, cream
coloured and exhibit swarming motility after growth on R2A at 30 ºC for 24 h. Grows at
4-45 ºC (optimum growth temperature is 30 ºC), at pH 5.5-9.5 and in 1-7% NaCl w/v
(optimum 1%). Fluorescent pigments are not produced. Aerobic growth.
Isolated from rhizosphere soil of Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) collected from experimental field No. 37 at Tamilnadu Agricultural
University, Coimbatore, India.
Undetermined.
