Description of Kitasatospora xanthocidica LPB 0280

Cells are aerobic, Gram­staining­positive, non­flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies are irregular, undulate, flat and cream colored after incubation for 3 days on TSA at 25℃. In the API 20NE system, positive reaction for hydrolysis of esculin (weak), oxidase activity and utilization of D­glucose, L­arabinose (weak), N ­acetyl­glucosamine, potassium gluconate, malic acid (weak) and trisodium citrate (weak). In the API 20NE system, negative reaction for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease activity, hydrolysis of gelatin, β-galactosidase activity and utilization of D-mannose, D­mannitol, D­maltose, capric acid, adipic acid and phenylacetic acid. Strain LPB0280 ( = NIBRBAC000503341) was isolated from soil in Seoul, Korea ( 37°35′5.01″N 127° 1′35.69″E).
