Pedobacter ruber strain DSM 24536

Pedobacter ruber strain DSM 24536 is a Gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. This strain is classified as aerobic, requiring oxygen for its metabolic processes. It is psychrotolerant, with an optimal growth temperature of 16°C, indicating its ability to thrive in cooler environments. The temperature range suitable for its growth is consistent with psychrotolerant characteristics, allowing it to survive and function well in cold conditions. Pedobacter ruber strain DSM 24536 has a single replicon and is categorized as non-spore-forming, which suggests that it does not produce spores as a means of survival under adverse conditions. The strain is associated with the accession number FNHH00000000.1, which provides a reference point for its genomic data. The physiological traits of Pedobacter ruber strain DSM 24536 suggest that it plays a role in the decomposition of organic matter in cold environments, potentially contributing to nutrient cycling in these ecosystems. Its ability to thrive at low temperatures makes it particularly relevant in polar or high-altitude habitats, where it may influence microbial community dynamics and ecosystem functions. The presence of this strain in such environments underscores the adaptability of microbial life to extreme conditions.
