Overview

  • Gabonia massiliensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 37.9%. Gabonia massiliensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Mourembou2016)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Mourembou2016). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
