Pseudoalteromonas piscicida strain S1947

Pseudoalteromonas piscicida strain S1947 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium known for its mobility. This strain has been isolated from various marine environments, specifically Delaware Bay, Hainan Island, and mariculture water. The presence of P. piscicida in these habitats highlights its adaptability to different marine ecosystems. The strain possesses a single replicon, which is an important characteristic for understanding its genomic organization and stability. The accession number for this strain is PNEJ00000000.1, which facilitates access to its genetic information for further research and study. Biologically, Pseudoalteromonas species are often recognized for their ecological roles in marine environments, including interactions with other microorganisms, contribution to nutrient cycling, and potential pathogenicity in marine organisms. The identification of P. piscicida strain S1947 in mariculture water suggests a possible implication in aquaculture practices, where monitoring and management of microbial populations are critical for the health of cultured species. Understanding the traits and habitat of P. piscicida can provide insights into its ecological interactions and potential applications in marine biotechnology or environmental monitoring.
