Aeromonas encheleia strain NCTC12917

Aeromonas encheleia strain NCTC12917 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its rod shape and the presence of flagella, which facilitate motility. This strain is classified as an organotroph and a chemotroph, indicating that it derives its energy from organic compounds and chemical processes. The genetic material of the strain is organized into a single replicon, simplifying its genomic structure. The accession number for this strain is NZ_LR134376.1, which provides a reference for genomic sequences and related studies. As a member of the Aeromonas genus, A. encheleia is likely to inhabit aquatic environments, aligning with the ecological niches typically occupied by other members of this group. The presence of flagella may enhance its ability to thrive in such environments, allowing it to move toward nutrient-rich areas or away from harmful conditions. Overall, the traits of Aeromonas encheleia strain NCTC12917 highlight its adaptability as an organotrophic and chemotrophic organism in aquatic ecosystems, which may play a role in nutrient cycling and microbial community dynamics. Further studies on this strain could offer insights into its ecological functions and interactions within its habitat.
