Lentibacillus halodurans strain CGMCC 1.3702

Lentibacillus halodurans strain CGMCC 1.3702 is a Gram-positive, aerobic bacterium characterized by its rod shape and non-motility. This strain is mesophilic, with an optimal growth temperature of 29°C, indicating its preferred growth conditions are moderate. The organism is notable for its ability to form spores, a trait that can enhance its survival under adverse environmental conditions. With a single replicon, Lentibacillus halodurans strain CGMCC 1.3702 has a streamlined genetic structure, which may contribute to its adaptability and efficiency in resource utilization. The organism's genetic material is cataloged with the accession number FOJW00000000.1, which provides a reference for its genomic information. The ability of Lentibacillus halodurans to thrive in aerobic conditions while forming spores suggests a potential ecological role in nutrient cycling, particularly in environments where oxygen is available. Its mesophilic nature may also indicate a preference for habitats that experience moderate temperatures, potentially including agricultural soils or other terrestrial ecosystems. The combination of its Gram-positive structure, aerobic metabolism, and sporulation capability positions Lentibacillus halodurans strain CGMCC 1.3702 as a significant participant in microbial communities, influencing both soil health and ecosystem dynamics.
