Citrobacter braakii strain HH6 54

Citrobacter braakii strain HH6 54 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that possesses flagella, indicating its motility. This strain has a single replicon, highlighting a streamlined genetic structure that is characteristic of many bacteria in the Enterobacteriaceae family to which it belongs. The strain has been isolated from various hosts, including Homo sapiens (humans), Oncorhynchus mykiss (rainbow trout), Ictalurus punctatus (channel catfish), Xenopus laevis (African clawed frog), Kurixalus bisacculus (a species of frog), and Oophaga histrionica (a poison dart frog). This wide host range suggests that Citrobacter braakii strain HH6 54 may have versatile ecological roles and could be involved in diverse microbial interactions within different host environments. The accession number for this strain is SJSI00000000.1, which provides a reference for researchers interested in studying its genomic data. Understanding the ecological interactions of Citrobacter braakii, particularly in aquatic and amphibious ecosystems, may offer insights into its roles in nutrient cycling and its potential contributions to host health or disease. Such knowledge could prove valuable in fields ranging from environmental microbiology to aquaculture and conservation efforts.
