Enterobacter hormaechei subsp. xiangfangensis strain 42333

Enterobacter hormaechei subsp. xiangfangensis strain 42333 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its rod shape and the presence of flagella, allowing for motility. This strain is classified as a facultative anaerobe, meaning it can thrive in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. It is mesophilic, with a temperature range suitable for growth at moderate temperatures. This bacterium is host-associated and exhibits a free-living biotic relationship. It has been identified in association with various hosts, including Homo sapiens (humans), Triticum aestivum (wheat), and Ipomoea batatas (sweet potato). The strain possesses a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genetic organization, which may contribute to its adaptability in diverse environments. The ecological significance of Enterobacter hormaechei subsp. xiangfangensis strain 42333 lies in its association with both human hosts and economically important plants. Its presence in humans suggests potential implications for health, while its association with crops like wheat and sweet potato highlights its potential role in agricultural ecosystems. This dual association may influence both human health and agricultural productivity, making this strain a subject of interest for further study in both microbiology and ecology. The accession number for this strain is JZYF00000000.1, which can be used for further reference in genomic databases.
