Coprothermobacteraceae is a bacterial family of rod-shaped microorganisms, belonging to the order Coprothermobacterales, class Coprothermobacteria of the phylum Coprothermobacterota. [1] [2]
The name of this family was given on the basis of an early genus identified within this group, dubbed " Coprothermobacter ", whose etymology derives from Greek "kopros", meaning manure, and "thermos", warm, from the source where these bacteria were collected and the temperature conditions in which they are able to grow, which can be up to 75°C. [3]
This taxonomic family has been introduced in 2018, after a phylogenetic reclassification of the genus Coprothermobacter , which has been based on published studies that shown that these bacteria actually represent a deeply branched taxon of the domain Bacteria. [1] Consequently, the clade including this genus has been classified in the phylum Coprothermobacterota, a separate phylum from Firmicute, where Coprothermobacter was formerly included before the reclassification. Actually, Coprothermobacteraceae is the only family belonging to the order Coprothermobacterales. [4]
The Alicyclobacillaceae are a family of Gram-positive bacteria. All members of this family are aerobic and form endospores.
Enterocloster clostridioformis, formerly known as Clostridium clostridioforme, is an anaerobic, motile, Gram-positive bacterium.
Thermoanaerobacter is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria). Members of this genus are thermophilic and anaerobic, several of them were previously described as Clostridium species and members of the now obsolete genera Acetogenium and Thermobacteroides
Aeribacillus is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria).
Afifella is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria). Afifella are found in marine and estuarine settings, including microbial mats. They are anaerobes, with one cultured representative capable of photosynthesis.
Dechloromonas is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
Dendrosporobacter is a genus in the phylum Bacillota (Bacteria). Members of the class Negativicutes, stain gram negative, despite being firmicutes
Agreia is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Algicola is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
Aliivibrio is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
The family Thermodesulfobiaceae according to the LPSN is located within the order Thermoanaerobacterales and class Clostridia. However, according to the All-Species Living Tree Project it lies outside the clade Bacillota and the genus Caldanaerovirga does not belong to the clade, i.e. Thermodesulfobiaceae is polyphyletic.
Thermoanaerobacter acetoethylicus, formerly called Thermobacteroides acetoethylicus, is a species of thermophilic, nonspore-forming bacteria.
Coprothermobacter proteolyticus, formerly Thermobacteroides proteolyticus, is a thermophilic, non-spore-forming bacteria.
Roseivirga is a strictly aerobic genus from the phylum Bacteroidota.
Caldanaerobacter is a Gram-positive or negative and strictly anaerobic genus of bacteria from the family of Thermoanaerobacteraceae.
Coprothermobacterota is a phylum of nonmotile, rod-shaped bacteria.
Coprothermobacteria is a taxonomic class of bacteria in the phylum Coprothermobacterota.
Coprothermobacterales is a taxonomic order of thermophilic bacteria in the class Coprothermobacteria of the phylum Coprothermobacterota.
Coprothermobacter is a genus of rod-shaped microorganisms, belonging to the bacterial family Coprothermobacteraceae of the phylum Coprothermobacterota. This taxonomic genus has been reclassified in 2018, after different phylogenetic studies showed that these bacteria represented a deeply branched taxon of the domain Bacteria; consequently, the clade including this genus has been classified in a separate phylum from Firmicutes, the phylum where it was included before reclassification.
Coprothermobacter platensis is a species of moderately thermophilic and strictly anaerobic bacterium belonging to the family Coprothermobacteraceae within the phylum Coprothermobacterota.
