Oxalicibacterium horti is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, nonspore-forming, yellow-pigmented bacterium from the genus Oxalicibacterium and family Oxalobacteraceae.[4] O. horti uses potassium oxalate as a sole carbon source.[5] Its 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis has shown that it belongs to the order of Betaproteobacteria, most closely to Oxalicibacterium flavum.[5]
