Habitat Information
- Types of Soil Organism was Found In:
*Heiden Clay, 5-8% slopes, eroded (most common) *Houston Black Clay, 1-3% slopes
Air Temp: 83 Degrees Fahrenheit/ 28 Degrees Celsius Humidity: 32 % 24 hr. Rainfall: 0.00in Pressure: 30.11 in/ 1018.5mb (sea level) Solar Radiation: 22.49 (mj/m^2) Wind at 4am: 2.06mph Wind at 4pm: 2.77mph
- Soil Location Description:
*Soil was taken from directly under a tree at Cabana Beach Apartments in San Marcos, Texas. This area is a very open area and gets water daily from sprinklers. The water it gets daily is minimal, so it does dry quickly. The soil was a very dark brown color. Had almost a dry dirt look and feel to it.
Description and Significance
Describe the appearance (colonial and cellular), possible antimicrobial activity etc. of the organism, and why the organism might be significant.
- Description:
- Whiteish color, shiny, raised and semi flat
Genome Structure
Describe the size and content of the genome. How many chromosomes? Circular or linear? Other interesting features? What is known about its sequence? Include S Ribosomal sequence that you obtained from PCR and sequencing here.
Cell Structure, Metabolism and Life Cycle
Interesting features of cell structure; how it gains energy; what important molecules it produces.
Physiology and Pathogenesis
Biochemical characteristics, enzymes made, other characteristics that may be used to identify the organism; contributions to environment (if any).
If relevant, how does this organism cause disease? Human, animal, plant hosts? Virulence factors, as well as patient symptoms.
