In the API 20NE strip, nitrate reduction, esculin hydrolysis, urease and β -galactosidase activities and assimilation of D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose are malic acid are positive, but indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase and gelatinase activities and assimilation of potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate and phenylacetic acid are negative. Strain DT2- 01 (= NIBRBA0000114177) has been isolated from a plant root sample, Daejeon, Korea.
