Colonies are circular, spore-forming and yellow colored after incubation for 3 days on R2 A agar at 20-40℃. In the API 20NE system, positive reaction for hydrolysis of esculin and gelatin, β-galactosidase activity and utilization of D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-maltose and potassium gluconate. In the API 20NE system, negative reaction for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease activity, oxidase activity and utilization of D-mannose, D-mannitol, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain 13H­1 ( = NIBRBAC000503222) was isolated from meadow soil in Yeongwol , Gangwon Province , Korea ( 37°23′04.0″N 128°41′01.3″E ) .
