Proteobacteria phylum of Gram-negative bacteria

Proteobacteria is a major phylum of Gram-negative bacteria. They include a wide variety of pathogenic genera, such as Escherichia, Salmonella, Vibrio, Helicobacter, Yersinia, Legionellales, and many others. Others are free-living (nonparasitic) and include many of the bacteria responsible for nitrogen fixation.

Desulfofrigus oceanense is a bacterium. It is a psychrophilic Gram-negative and sulfate-reducing bacteria with type strain Asv26T.

Desulfofrigus fragile is a bacterium. It is a psychrophilic Gram-negative and sulfate-reducing bacteria with type strain Lsv21T.

Roseivivax halotolerans is a species of bacteria. It is aerobic and bacteriochlorophyll-containing, first isolated from the epiphytes on the stromatolites of a saline lake located on the west coast of Australia. It is chemoheterotrophic, Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped and with subpolar flagella. Its type strain is OCh 210T.
