Citrobacter braakii strain HH7 15

Citrobacter braakii strain HH7 15 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its rod shape and the presence of flagella, which contribute to its motility. This strain is notable for having a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genomic structure. The strain has been identified in various hosts, including Homo sapiens (humans), Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout), Ictalurus punctatus (channel catfish), Xenopus laevis (African clawed frog), Kurixalus bisacculus (a species of tree frog), and Oophaga histrionica (a species of poison dart frog). This diverse host range suggests that Citrobacter braakii strain HH7 15 may possess ecological versatility, allowing it to thrive in different environments and interact with various organisms. The accession number for this strain is SJSH00000000.1, which provides a reference for genomic data and further research. The presence of Citrobacter braakii in both aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates highlights its potential role in microbial ecosystems and its interactions within different biological contexts. Understanding the ecological implications of this strain can shed light on its significance in host-microbe dynamics and its adaptability to varied environmental niches.
