Overview

  • Rummeliibacillus suwonensis is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, facultatively 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 37.8%. Rummeliibacillus suwonensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Her2013)



  • This organism has been recovered from mountain soil from Korea. Has also been detected in human faeces (Bilen2018e). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
