Strains of this species are motile and produce terminal or subterminal oval endospores in swollen sporangia. Nitrate, nitrite, and nitrous oxide are denitrified with production of nitrogen. The guanine-plus-cytosine content of the deoxyribonucleic acid of this organism is 39.8 ± 1.2 mol% (mean ± standard deviation). The type strain is ATCC 29788 (= CCM 2849 = CIP R925).", }
