Halorhodospira is a Gram-negative genus of bacteria from the family of Ectothiorhodospiraceae. [1] [2] [3] [4] Halorhodospira bacteria occur in hypersaline and extreme saline habitats. [4]
The Pasteurellaceae comprise a large family of Gram-negative bacteria. Most members live as commensals on mucosal surfaces of birds and mammals, especially in the upper respiratory tract. Pasteurellaceae are typically rod-shaped, and are a notable group of facultative anaerobes. Their biochemical characteristics can be distinguished from the related Enterobacteriaceae by the presence of oxidase, and from most other similar bacteria by the absence of flagella.
Variovorax is a Gram-negative and motile genus of bacteria from the family Comamonadaceae. It belong to the class called Betaproteobacteria. It is an aerobic bacteria and most of its species is found in soil and freshwater. The demographic distribution of this species is primarily in Europe, Asia and the Americas, as well as the polar regions. Its designated species is Variovorax paradoxus which arose from the species Alcaligenes paradoxus being grouped under the Variovorax genus. Variovorax paradoxus constitutes to the methylotrophic microbiota of the human mouth.
The Lachnospiraceae are a family of obligately anaerobic, variably spore-forming bacteria in the order Eubacteriales that ferment diverse plant polysaccharides to short-chain fatty acids and alcohols (ethanol). These bacteria are among the most abundant taxa in the rumen and the human gut microbiota. Members of this family may protect against colon cancer in humans by producing butyric acid. Lachnospiraceae have been found to contribute to diabetes in genetically susceptible (ob/ob) germ-free mice.
Marinomonas is an aerobic bacteria genus from the family of Oceanospirillaceae.
Chitinivibrio is an extremely haloalkaliphilic genus of bacteria from the family of Chitinivibrionaceae with one known species. Chitinivibrio alkaliphilus has been isolated from hypersaline lake sediments from Wadi al Natrun in Egypt.
Phycisphaeraceae is a family of bacteria.
Singulisphaera is a moderately acidophilic and mesophilic genus of bacteria from the family of Planctomycetaceae.
Ignatzschineria is a genus of bacteria from the class Gammaproteobacteria. Ignatzschineria is named after Ignaz Rudolph Schiner.
Marinifilum is a genus of bacteria from the family of Marinifilaceae.
Thermanaerovibrio is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming chemoorganotrophic and thermophilic genus of bacteria from the family of Synergistaceae.
Cloacibacillus is a Gram-negative and anaerobic genus of bacteria from the family of Synergistaceae. Cloacibacillus bacteria are pathogenic.
Niabella is a genus of bacteria from the family of Chitinophagaceae.
Taibaiella is a genus of bacteria from the family of Chitinophagaceae.
Terrimonas is a Gram-negative, aerobic and non-motile genus of bacteria from the family of Chitinophagaceae.
Halorhodospira neutriphila is a bacterium from the genus of Halorhodospira which has been isolated from a microbial mat from a marine saltern from Rhone Delta in France. The microbial mat forms at the sediment surface and is between 10 and 20 mm thick, below a fine layer (2–3 cm) of gypsum crust. The mat is composed of a red layer of purple bacteria strains below a green layer of cyanobacteria, interspersed with sulfur globules, and occasionally covered by halite deposits. These mat forming microbes live in anoxic muds and sediments and form a benthic mat in a hypersaline lagoon environment where the salinity of the water ranges from 240-320‰ of total salinity. H. neutriphila was isolated from the red layer of the microbial layer and found to be extremely halophilic and well adapted to withstand the extreme saline conditions of their modified marine habitat. The type strain was identified as strain SG 3301T.
Halochromatium is a Gram-positive and motile genus of bacteria from the family of Chromatiaceae. Halochromatium bacteria occur in microbial mats from hypersaline habitates.
Thiorhodococcus is a Gram-negative genus of bacteria from the family of Chromatiaceae.
Halobacteroides is a Gram-negative strictly anaerobic, chemoorganotrophic genus of bacteria from the family of Halobacteroidaceae.
Jeotgalibaca is a genus of bacteria from the family of Carnobacteriaceae.
Trichococcus is a mesophilic and psychrotolerant genus of bacteria from the family of Carnobacteriaceae. Trichococcus bacteria have the ability to utilize sugars, sugar alcohols and polysaccharides. Some species of Trichococcus species where transferred from the genera Lactosphaera and Ruminococcus.
