Query: NC_014012:1676983 Shewanella violacea DSS12, complete genome Lineage: Shewanella violacea; Shewanella; Shewanellaceae; Alteromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria General Information: Shewanella violacea DSS12 was isolated from mud, taken at a depth of 5110 m, from the Ryukyu Trench in the Philippine Sea. Shewanella violacea is psychrophilic and barophilic, with an optimum growth temperature and pressure of 8 degrees C and 30 MPa, respectively. This organism is able to grow at pressures from 0.1 MPa to 70Mpa, however, no growth occurs a temperatures above 20 degrees C.

General Information: Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Marine. Strain IFAM 1418 (ATCC 49814) was isolated from the top 5cm of water in Kiel Fjord on the Baltic Sea, Germany in October 1982 and is the type strain for this species. Hirschia baltica has a biphasic life style, which consists of a motile phase of flagellated swarmer cells and a cessile phase in which a long prosthecate is produced at one end of the bacteria through which budding cells emerge. Newly budded cells in turn produce flagella and go through a motile phase and the cycle continues. These organisms can colonize the surfaces of marine environments which enables additional species to colonize at later stages.
