The Kocurious case of Noodlococcus: genomic insights into <i>Kocuria rhizophila</i> from characterisation of a laboratory contaminant
2025-06-01
Abstract excerpt
The laboratory contaminant Noodlococcus was named for its coccoid cells and unusual colony morphology, which resembled a pile of noodles. Along with laboratory characterisation and electron microscopy, we generated a complete Noodlococcus genome sequence using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore data. The genome consisted of a single, circular, 2732108 bp chromosome that shared 97.5% Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) wit...
