Arthrobacter woluwensis strain DSM 10495

Arthrobacter woluwensis strain DSM 10495 is a mesophilic bacterium primarily found in soil environments. This strain exhibits the presence of flagella, which may contribute to its motility within its natural habitat. The optimal growth temperature for A. woluwensis is 29°C, indicating a preference for moderate temperatures typical of mesophilic organisms. With a single replicon, this strain's genetic material is organized in a streamlined manner, which may reflect its adaptation to soil ecosystems where efficiency in growth and reproduction is advantageous. The strain is cataloged under the accession number FNSN00000000.1, which provides a reference for further genetic and functional studies. The ecological role of Arthrobacter woluwensis in soil may involve nutrient cycling, as members of the Arthrobacter genus are known for their capabilities in decomposing organic matter and participating in soil health. The presence of flagella suggests that A. woluwensis may also play a role in biofilm formation or motility through soil matrices, potentially influencing its interactions with other soil microorganisms. Overall, this strain exemplifies the diverse adaptations of soil bacteria to their environments, contributing to the complex dynamics of soil ecosystems.
