Overview

  • Rhodoplanes serenus is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 69.5%. Rhodoplanes serenus is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Okamura2009)



  • This organism has been recovered from pond water. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal.
    • QUIRKS
  • Phototrophic and prefers anaerobic photoorganotrophy, using nitrate as a terminal electron acceptor. Photolithic growth with thiosulfate. Can fix N2 and use sulfate as a S source.
