Hoeflea marina is a Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacteria from the genus of Hoeflea which was isolated from marine environments in Germany. [3] [4] [5] [6] Agrobacterium ferrugineum was reclassified to Hoeflea marina. [3]

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.

<i>Agrobacterium</i> Genus of bacteria

Agrobacterium is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria established by H. J. Conn that uses horizontal gene transfer to cause tumors in plants. Agrobacterium tumefaciens is the most commonly studied species in this genus. Agrobacterium is well known for its ability to transfer DNA between itself and plants, and for this reason it has become an important tool for genetic engineering.

<i>Thermus</i>

Thermus is a genus of thermophilic bacteria. It is one of several bacteria belonging to the Deinococcus–Thermus group. It includes the following species:

Rhizobiales Order of bacteria

The Rhizobiales are an order of Gram-negative Alphaproteobacteria.

Halomonadaceae

Halomonadaceae is a family of halophilic Proteobacteria.

In taxonomy, Ruegeria is a genus of the Rhodobacteraceae. This genus was formerly known as the marine Agrobacterium before they were reclassified in 1998. It bears in fact the name of Hans-Jürgen Rüger, a German microbiologist, for his contribution to the taxonomy of marine species of Agrobacterium.

<i>Flavobacterium</i>

Flavobacterium is a genus of Gram-negative, nonmotile and motile, rod-shaped bacteria that consists of 130 recognized species. Flavobacteria are found in soil and fresh water in a variety of environments. Several species are known to cause disease in freshwater fish.

Alteromonas is a genus of Proteobacteria found in sea water, either in the open ocean or in the coast. It is Gram-negative. Its cells are curved rods with a single polar flagellum.

In taxonomy, Ahrensia is a genus of the Rhodobacteraceae. Ahrensia is named after the German microbiologist R. Ahrens. The cells are rod-shaped and motile. They are strictly aerobic.

In taxonomy, Stappia is a genus of the Rhodobacteraceae. Some members of the genus oxidize carbon monoxide (CO) aerobically.

Streptoalloteichus is a genus of bacteria within the family Pseudonocardiaceae that contains two known species:

Afifella is a genus in the phylum Proteobacteria (Bacteria). Afifella are found in marine and estuarine settings, including microbial mats.[3][4][5][6] They are a anaerobes, with one cultured representative capable of photosynthesis.

Dactylosporangium is a genus in the phylum Actinobacteria (Bacteria).

Agromyces is a genus in the phylum Actinobacteria (Bacteria).

Hoeflea is a genus of Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, oxidase- and catalase-positive, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacteria.

Virgibacillus is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped (bacillus) bacteria and a member of the phylum Firmicutes. Virgibacillus species can be obligate aerobes, or facultative anaerobes and catalase enzyme positive. Under stressful environmental conditions, the bacteria can produce oval or ellipsoidal endospores in terminal, or sometimes subterminal, swollen sporangia. The genus was recently reclassified from the genus Bacillus in 1998 following an analysis of the species V. pantothenticus. Subsequently, a number of new species have been discovered or reclassified as Virgibacillus species.

Hoeflea alexandrii is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, non-spore-forming, motile bacteria with a single polar flagella from the genus of Hoeflea which was isolated from Alexandrium minutum AL1V in Vigo in Spain.

Hoeflea phototrophica are aerobic marine bacteria from the genus of Hoeflea which was isolated from a culture of Prorocentrum lima.

Hoeflea olei is a Gram-negative and rod-shaped bacteria from the genus of Hoeflea which has been isolated from water in Kerala in India. Hoeflea olei has the ability to degrade diesel oil.

Knoellia is a genus of Gram positive, aerobic, non-endosporeforming bacteria. Species in this genus are mesophilic and have cells that are irregular rods or coccoid.
