Pseudodesulfovibrio indicus str. J2

Pseudodesulfovibrio indicus str. J2 is a Gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium characterized by its curved or spiral shape. This organism thrives at an optimal temperature of 32°C, placing it within the mesophilic temperature range. The bacterium has a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genetic structure for its cellular processes. The genomic sequence for Pseudodesulfovibrio indicus str. J2 is available under the accession number NZ_CP014206.1. The anaerobic nature of Pseudodesulfovibrio indicus str. J2 suggests its ecological role in environments where oxygen is limited. Such habitats could include marine sediments or anoxic zones within various ecosystems. The organism’s mesophilic temperature preference indicates that it can contribute to biogeochemical cycles in temperate regions, where temperatures are conducive to its growth. The ability to thrive in anaerobic conditions can have implications for nutrient cycling, specifically in terms of sulfur and carbon processes, which are critical in sedimentary environments. Understanding the traits of Pseudodesulfovibrio indicus str. J2 can provide insights into its role in microbial communities and its potential applications in bioremediation or other ecological studies.
