Gram-negative rods, 0.5-1 x 1.5-5 µm. Motile by polar flagella. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies on minimal sucrose asparagine medium are yellowish with smooth and
regular margins. After 24 h at 28 ºC, they produce a yellow diffusible pigment giving
a light yellow-green fluorescence when irradiated with UV light (254 nm). Can grow
at pH 6 and in 1% NaCl. Aerobic.
Isolated from the rhizosphere of sugar beet. Resistant to rifamycin SV, lincomycin, niaproof 4, vancomycin and potassium tellurite.
Undetermined.
