Overview

  • Bacteroides bouchesdurhonensis, (aka Bacteroides bouchedurhonense), is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 39.8%. Bacteroides bouchesdurhonensis is a common gut coloniser. (Dione2018a; Yimagou2020; Ndongo2019a; Ndongo2017c)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (healthy individual - Ndongo2017c). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
