Xanthobacter flavus
Scope note: Género de bacterias gramnegativas, aerobias, con forma bacilar, que se encuentran en suelos húmedos que contienen material orgánico en descomposición y en el agua. Tienden a ser polimorfas si crecen en medios que contienen succinato, o adoptan forma cocoide si crecen en presencia de un alcohol como única fuente de carbono.
