Jannaschia seohaensis strain DSM 25227

Jannaschia seohaensis strain DSM 25227 is a Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium that exhibits an aerobic metabolism, thriving optimally at a temperature of 29.0°C. This strain belongs to the genus Jannaschia, which is noted for its marine habitat preference, suggesting an adaptation to specific ecological niches in oceanic environments. As a member of the Gammaproteobacteria class, J. seohaensis is part of a diverse group of bacteria that play significant roles in biogeochemical cycles. Its rod shape may confer advantages in nutrient uptake and mobility within its aquatic environment, potentially influencing its ecological interactions with other microorganisms and the surrounding marine community. Given its aerobic nature, J. seohaensis likely contributes to the degradation of organic matter in oxygen-rich environments, thereby participating in nutrient cycling. The optimal growth temperature of 29.0°C suggests that this strain may be particularly well-suited for conditions found in temperate marine waters, where it could play a role in the microbial dynamics of coastal ecosystems. Thus, Jannaschia seohaensis strain DSM 25227 exemplifies the characteristics of marine bacteria that are integral to maintaining the health and balance of their respective habitats.
