Flavobacteria that were able to grow on 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (2,6-DMN) were isolated from soil. Most were able to oxidize a broad range of aromatic hydrocarbons after growth on 2,6-DMN at rates comparable to that of the oxidation of 2,6-DMN itself. One small group was neither able to grow on naphthalene nor able to oxidize this compound after growth on 2,6-DMN, but metabolized 2,6-DMN by a pathway which converged with that previously described for naphthalene metabolism in pseudomonads. These organisms could also grow on salicylate or methylsalicylate, and in so doing, early enzymes for 2,6-DMN metabolism were induced.
从土壤中分离出了能够在2,6 - 二甲基萘（2,6 - DMN）上生长的黄杆菌。大多数菌株在以2,6 - DMN为碳源生长后，能够以与2,6 - DMN自身氧化速率相当的速度氧化多种芳烃。有一小群菌株既不能在萘上生长，在以2,6 - DMN为碳源生长后也不能氧化该化合物，但它们通过一条与先前描述的假单胞菌中萘代谢途径汇合的途径代谢2,6 - DMN。这些微生物也能够在水杨酸盐或甲基水杨酸盐上生长，并且在这样做的过程中，诱导产生了2,6 - DMN代谢的早期酶。
