Pasteurella multocida subsp. multocida P1062

Pasteurella multocida subsp. multocida P1062 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that thrives at an optimal temperature of 37.0°C. This organism is classified as a facultative anaerobe, allowing it to adapt to both aerobic and anaerobic environments, thereby enhancing its survival in diverse host-associated habitats. As a member of the genus Pasteurella, P. multocida subsp. multocida P1062 is typically associated with animals, particularly domesticated species, where it may play a role in various biological processes. The bacterium's ability to grow in the presence or absence of oxygen suggests a versatile metabolic capability that may contribute to its persistence in host tissues and its interactions with the host's immune system. Given that this subspecies is host-associated, it likely engages in complex ecological relationships within its environment, potentially influencing microbial community dynamics. Understanding the specific interactions of P. multocida subsp. multocida P1062 within its host-associated habitat could provide insights into its ecological role and contributions to host health or disease. Further research into its metabolic pathways and interactions with other microbial species is warranted to elucidate its biological significance in host-associated ecosystems.
