Gram-positive cells. Non-motile.
Colonies are orange-colored and mucoid after 3 days of incubation on King’s B
medium. Can grow on King’s B medium at temperatures up to 34 ºC and a
maximum NaCl concentration of 6%. It produces levan, grows in TTC agar. Aerobic.

Isolated from pepper showing bacterial canker disease in Anyang, Korea.
It is the causative agent of bacterial canker disease in pepper.
Not acid fast. Description is based on API 50CH and API ZYM tests.
