The bacterium was thus named ''Kalamiella piersonii''.


Subsequent phylogenetic reassessment of the family Erwiniaceae found that Kalamiella fell within the evolutionary limits of the genus ''Pantoea'' rather than forming a clearly separate lineage.{{Cite journal |last=Soutar |first=Craig D. |last2=Stavrinides |first2=John |date=2022 |title=Phylogenomic analysis of the Erwiniaceae supports reclassification of Kalamiella piersonii to Pantoea piersonii comb. nov. and Erwinia gerundensis to the new genus Duffyella gen. nov. as Duffyella gerundensis comb. nov |url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34988605 |journal=Molecular genetics and genomics: MGG |volume=297 |issue=1 |pages=213–225 |doi=10.1007/s00438-021-01829-3 |issn=1617-4623 |pmid=34988605}} As a result, the species was transferred to ''Panoea'' and became ''Pantoea piersonii''.
== Ecology ==

== Phenotypic characteristics ==
''P. piersonii'' is a motile, non-endospore forming Gram-negative rod. The bacterium produces beige colonies with circular and smooth edges. ''P. piersonii'' is able to grow at temperatures between 12 and 37 °C, with optimum growth at 30 °C.
