Pseudomonas anguilliseptica strain DSM 12111

Pseudomonas anguilliseptica strain DSM 12111 is an aerobic bacterium primarily associated with the host Anguilla japonica, commonly known as the Japanese eel. This strain features a single replicon, which indicates that it possesses a streamlined genetic structure, potentially contributing to its adaptability and survival in various environments. The strain is cataloged under the accession number FNSC00000000.1, which provides a reference for genomic studies and further research into its characteristics and behaviors. Understanding the specific interactions between Pseudomonas anguilliseptica and its aquatic host can shed light on the ecological dynamics within freshwater ecosystems, particularly those involving eels. Given its aerobic nature, DSM 12111 likely plays a role in the biogeochemical cycles of its aquatic environment, potentially influencing nutrient cycling and organic matter decomposition. The relationship between this bacterium and Anguilla japonica could also be significant in terms of the health and disease dynamics within eel populations, emphasizing the importance of microbial interactions in aquatic ecosystems. This highlights the ecological role of Pseudomonas anguilliseptica as both a participant in and influencer of its host's environment and wellbeing.
