Hoylesella timonensis S9-PR14

Hoylesella timonensis S9-PR14 is a Gram-negative, non-motile bacterium that is classified as a chemoheterotroph, relying on organic compounds as its energy source. This organism is an anaerobe, meaning it thrives in environments devoid of oxygen, and is categorized as mesophilic, indicating its optimal growth temperature range is moderate. The bacterium possesses a single replicon, which is characteristic of its genetic structure. Notably, Hoylesella timonensis does not engage in sporulation, indicating it does not form spores as a means of survival under adverse conditions. The presence of flagella suggests a capacity for movement in some contexts, although the species itself is described as non-motile. Hoylesella timonensis has been recorded in multiple habitats, although specific environments are not detailed. Its ecological role as a chemoheterotroph in anaerobic settings may contribute to nutrient cycling within those ecosystems, as it processes organic material. This could play a significant part in the maintenance of microbial communities and the overall health of the environments it inhabits. The accession number for this strain is JRPQ00000000.1, which allows for further reference and study in microbial databases. Understanding the traits of Hoylesella timonensis S9-PR14 helps illuminate its potential ecological functions and interactions within its habitats.
