Dinghuibacter silviterrae strain DSM 100059

Dinghuibacter silviterrae strain DSM 100059 is a Gram-negative, aerobic bacterium characterized by its rod shape and non-motile nature. This strain thrives optimally at a temperature of 29°C, situating it within the mesophilic temperature range. Its genomic structure is marked by a single replicon, and it is cataloged under the accession number SODV00000000.1. As a member of the microbial community, Dinghuibacter silviterrae may play a role in various ecological processes, potentially contributing to nutrient cycling in its habitat. The aerobic nature of this bacterium suggests it requires oxygen for growth, which may influence its distribution in environments where oxygen levels are variable. The optimal growth temperature of 29°C indicates that it may be well adapted to moderate thermal conditions, promoting its survival and activity in temperate ecosystems. The non-motility of Dinghuibacter silviterrae could limit its ability to actively seek out resources or escape unfavorable conditions; however, it may rely on passive dispersal mechanisms. Understanding the ecological roles and interactions of such microbes can provide insights into the dynamics of microbial communities and their influence on ecosystem health.
