Colonies grown on R2 A are white, circular, convex and smooth. Oxidase activity is positive. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for nitrate reduction, glucose fermentation, esculin hydrolysis, and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, malate and trisodium citrate; but negative for indole production, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatinase, β -galactosidase, and assimilation of adipic acid and phenylacetic acid. Strain HMF5357 ( = NI- BRBAC000508753 ) was isolated from a soil sample collected from Yongin , Republic of Korea ( 37°20 ʹ 22.9 ʺ N 127°16 ʹ 15.3 ʺ E ).
