Flavivirga eckloniae str. ECD14

Flavivirga eckloniae strain ECD14 is a Gram-negative, aerobic bacterium characterized by its rod shape and non-motile nature. This organism thrives optimally at a temperature of 29°C, placing it within the mesophilic temperature range, which is conducive to its growth in moderate environmental conditions. Flavivirga eckloniae is distinguished by its genomic structure, possessing a single replicon, which is indicative of its genetic organization. Additionally, this strain is non-spore-forming, suggesting that it relies on other mechanisms to survive adverse conditions instead of forming spores, a trait common in some bacterial species. The accession number for Flavivirga eckloniae str. ECD14 is NZ_CP025791.1, which can be used to locate its genomic information in biological databases. From an ecological perspective, the characteristics of Flavivirga eckloniae str. ECD14 suggest it may play a role in various environments where aerobic conditions prevail, particularly those with moderate temperatures. Its non-motile nature may indicate a lifestyle that is influenced by its immediate surroundings, potentially leading to interactions with other microorganisms or substrates in its habitat. These traits collectively highlight the ecological niche that Flavivirga eckloniae occupies and its potential contributions to microbial communities.
