Arthrobacter endophyticus Wang et al. 2015.
Gram-positive cells showing a rod-coccus cycle. Non-motile. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies on ISP 2 medium are white, convex, circular, smooth and 1.5-2.0 mm
indiameter after 48 h at 30 ºC. Grows at 5-35 ºC (optimally at  25-30 ºC), at pH 5-10
(optimally at pH 7-8) and in the presence of 0-13% (w/v) NaCl (optimally in 0-5%).
Aerobic.
Isolated from the surface-sterilized root of the halophyte Salsola affinis C. A. Mey, China.
Undetermined.
