Species

Desulfonema limicola

Description and Significance

Describe the appearance, habitat, etc. of the organism, and why you think it is important.

Genome Structure

The genome has yet to be sequenced, however, Gerard Muyze is in the process of doing so. [Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. 2010]

Cell Structure, Metabolism and Life Cycle

Interesting features of cell structure; how it gains energy; what important molecules it produces.


Ecology and Pathogenesis

Habitat; symbiosis; biogeochemical significance; contributions to environment.
If relevant, how does this organism cause disease? Human, animal, plant hosts? Virulence factors, as well as patient symptoms.
