Harrisella borageis a Gram-positive, anaerobic bacterium commonly found in soil and aquatic environments. It is notable for its ability to produce bioluminescence, a trait that makes it glow under ultraviolet light. This bacterium is often associated with the bioluminescent displays observed in marine environments, particularly in certain species of dinoflagellates, though it can also be isolated from soil and water samples. Harrisella borageis is considered non-pathogenic and plays a role in nutrient cycling in its natural habitats. Its unique properties have made it a subject of interest in biotechnology and research into bioluminescent applications.
