Description of Staphylococcus succinus subsp. succinus NC 2

Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-flagellated, coccoid or oval ovoid-shaped bacterium (0.9-1.0 μm wide, 1.0- 1.2 μm long). Colonies grown on R2 A agar are cream, convex, and smooth. Oxidase activity is negative. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for nitrate reduction; glucose fermentation; aesculin hydrolysis; activity of urease and β -galactosidase; and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, and malic acid, but negative for indole production; gelatin hydrolysis; arginine dihydrolase activity; and assimilation of capric acid, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain NC2 (= NIBRBAC000503420) was isolated from a soil sample collected from Yeongju, Republic of Korea (36°53 ʹ 51.5 ʺ N, 128°28 ʹ 02.3 ʺ E).
