Cells are aerobic, Gram-staining-positive, non-flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, glistening and yellow colored after incubation for 3 days on R2 A agar at 25℃. In the API 20NE system, positive reaction for hydrolysis of esculin, oxidase activity and utilization of D­mannitol. In the API 20NE system, negative reaction for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease activity, hydrolysis of gelatin, β-galactosidase activity and utilization of D-glucose, L­arabinose, D­mannose, N ­acetyl­glucosamine, D­maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid. Strain N14 (= NIBRBAC000503414) was isolated from ginseng­cultivated soil in Yeongju, Gyeongsangbuk Province, Korea (36°53′51.5″N 128°28′02.3″E).
