Rugosibacter aromaticivorans strain Ca6

Rugosibacter aromaticivorans strain Ca6 is a Gram-negative, non-motile bacterium characterized as a heterotroph, which means it derives its energy from organic compounds. This strain exhibits a rod-shaped morphology and is classified as aerobic, indicating that it requires oxygen for its metabolism and growth. The optimal growth temperature for Rugosibacter aromaticivorans strain Ca6 is 32°C, placing it within the mesophilic range, which generally encompasses organisms that thrive at moderate temperatures. The strain is noted to have a single replicon, a feature that may influence its genetic stability and replication processes. The strain has been cataloged under the accession number NZ_CP010554.1, which provides a reference for its genetic and genomic information in biological databases. This accession allows for further research and study into its metabolic pathways and potential applications. From an ecological perspective, the heterotrophic and aerobic nature of Rugosibacter aromaticivorans strain Ca6 suggests its role in organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling in its environment. By utilizing organic compounds, it could contribute to the breakdown of complex molecules, thereby facilitating the availability of nutrients for other organisms in its ecosystem. This trait underscores the importance of such bacteria in maintaining ecological balance and health in their habitats.
