Overview

  • Desulfovibrio longreachensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, anaerobic, motile, vibrio bacterium. The DNA G+C content is 69%. Desulfovibrio longreachensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Redburn1994)



  • This organism has been recovered from the water of a free-flowing bore of the Great Artesian Basin, Australia. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 1, i.e., low risk of infection and spread. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
