Winogradskyella wandonensis

Winogradskyella wandonensis is a Gram-negative, non-flagellated, non-gliding, aerobic and rod-shaped bacterium from the genus Winogradskyella which has been isolated from tidal flat from Wando from Korea[1][3][4][2] The bacterium thrives in marine environments and was discovered in a tidal flat ecosystem.

The type strain is WD-2-2, available in culture collections as CECT 8445 and KCTC 32579.

[5][6] The species' 16S rRNA gene sequence aids in phylogenetic studies.

W. wandonensis plays a role in organic material degradation and nutrient cycling in marine habitats.
