Old synonym:
Burkholderia metalliresistens Guo et al. 2015.
Gram-negative rods, 0.5–0.7 / 0.8–2.0 μm. Non-motile.
Colonies are milk-like, yellowish-white, convex and circular with clear margins on
modified SMN agar after 3 days of cultivation at 30 ºC. Temperature range for growth
is 10-50 ºC (optimum 30 ºC) and pH range of 3.0-8.0 (optimum 7.0). Grows  on R2A
medium, LB broth, yeast nitrogen base agar and trypticase soy agar but weakly on
Ashby’s nitrogen-free medium. Aerobic.
Isolated from arable layer (0-20 cm) of a heavy metal-polluted paddy soil, China.
Undetermined.
