Xanthobacter flavus is a Gram-negative, nitrogen-fixing and facultatively autotrophic bacteria from the family of Xanthobacteraceae which has been isolated from turf podsol soil in Russia.^{[1][3][5][6][7][8]} Xanthobacter flavus has the ability to degrade phenol, oxalate and 1,4-dichlorobenzene.^{[9][10][11][12]}
