Cells are Gram-staining-negative, non-flagellated, non-pigmented, and rod-shaped. Colonies are irregular, smooth, glistening, and pale yellow colored after 3 days on R2A at 25°C. Positive for nitrate reduction, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, and gelatinase in API 20NE, but negative for indole production and β -galactosidase. D-Glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are utilized. Strain WR-M4W (= NIBRBA0000114000) has been isolated from a soil sample of a field of reeds, Wando, Korea.
