Description of Citricoccus nitrophenolicus JMn10

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, non-flagellated, non-pigmented, and coccoid shaped. Colonies are circular, smooth, convex, entire, and pale-yellow colored after 3 days on R2 A at 25° C. Nitrate is not reduced and esculin is not hydrolyzed. The strain shows negative reactions for enzyme activities of arginine dihydrolase, gelatinase, β -galactosidase, urease, and oxidase. Indole is not produced and glucose is not fermented. The strain utilizes D-glucose, malic acid, and trisodium citrate, whereas the strain does not utilize L-arabinose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, potassium gluconate, phenylacetic acid, capric acid, and adipic acid. Strain JMn10 (= NIBRBAC000501120) was isolated from freshwater sediment, Juam, Suncheon, Jeollanam Province, Korea.
