'Aeromonas media
Habitat Information
The sample was collected from an area containing mostly Houston Black soil at a depth of approximately 1". It was a high traffic area in direct sunlight and the ground had been slightly disturbed.
- TEMP: 55F
- HUMIDITY:
- 24-hr RAINFALL: 0.0in
- PRESSURE: 29.93in
Description and Significance
Aeromonas media colonies are dull, off-white in color and round while slightly raised with an entire margin. On the cellular level it appears as rod-shaped bacteria, 1 by 2 pm in size with rounded ends that are not grouped together in any particular way. There are no antimicrobial properties known at this time and while much is known about other species of this genus, there is little significance given to this particular one.
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.
