Rhodoplanes serenus strain DSM 19946

Rhodoplanes serenus strain DSM 19946 is a Gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium characterized by its rod-shaped morphology. This strain thrives under mesophilic conditions, with an optimal growth temperature of 37°C. It possesses a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genomic organization. The anaerobic nature of Rhodoplanes serenus suggests its ecological role in environments where oxygen is limited or absent, such as in sediment or aquatic ecosystems. This adaptation may allow it to participate in various biogeochemical cycles, particularly those involving organic matter decomposition. The specific accession number for this strain is NPEW00000000.1, which provides a reference for further genomic studies or applications. Understanding the traits of Rhodoplanes serenus can contribute to our knowledge of microbial diversity and function in anaerobic environments. Its ability to thrive in specific temperature ranges and its Gram-negative classification may also have implications for its interactions with other microbial communities and its potential applications in biotechnology or environmental management.
