Gram-negative rods, 0.6-0.8 x 2.0-3.0 µm. Motile by polar flagella. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies grown on NBY agar plates are fresh light-yellow, fluorescent, raised,
circular,and it is usually 3.0-5.0 mm in diameter within 2 days of growth at 28 ºC.
Grows at temperatures between 4-36 ºC (optimum 28-30 ºC), at pH 4.0-10.0
(optimum pH 6-7) and up to 0-6% (w/v) NaCl. Aerobic.
Isolated from the rhizosphere of soybean grown in Mississippi.
Has antifungal activity against a broad range of plant fungal pathogens.
Undetermined.
