Peteryoungia is a genus of bacteria from the family Rhizobiaceae. [1]
The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN). [2] The phylogeny is based on whole-genome analysis. [1]

Bacilli is a taxonomic class of bacteria that includes two orders, Bacillales and Lactobacillales, which contain several well-known pathogens such as Bacillus anthracis. Bacilli are almost exclusively gram-positive bacteria.
The Rhizobiaceae is a family of Pseudomonadota comprising multiple subgroups that enhance and hinder plant development. Some bacteria found in the family are used for plant nutrition and collectively make up the rhizobia. Other bacteria such as Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Rhizobium rhizogenes severely alter the development of plants in their ability to induce crown galls or hairy roots, respectively. The family has been of an interest to scientists for centuries in their ability to associate with plants and modify plant development. The Rhizobiaceae are, like all Pseudomonadota, Gram-negative. They are aerobic, and the cells are usually rod-shaped. Many species of the Rhizobiaceae are diazotrophs which are able to fix nitrogen and are symbiotic with plant roots.
The Aurantimonadaceae are a small family of marine bacteria.
Entomoplasmatales is a small order of mollicute bacteria.
Rubrobacter is a genus of Actinomycetota. It is radiotolerant and may rival Deinococcus radiodurans in this regard.
Sphingobacteriaceae is a family of environmental bacteria.
In taxonomy, Acidianus is a genus of the Sulfolobaceae.
In taxonomy, Haloferax is a genus of the Haloferacaceae.
Actinocatenispora is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Deferribacter is a genus in the phylum Deferribacterota (Bacteria).
The Solirubrobacterales are an order of Actinomycetota.
Chloroflexales is an order of bacteria in the class Chloroflexia. The clade is also known as filamentous anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria (FAP), as the order contains phototrophs that do not produce oxygen. These bacteria are facultative aerobic. They generally use chemotrophy when oxygen is present and switch to light-derived energy when otherwise. Most species are heterotrophs, but a few are capable of photoautotrophy.
Shinella is a genus of bacteria from the family Rhizobiaceae.
Ciceribacter is a bacterial genus of the family Rhizobiaceae.
Hydrogenobacter is a genus of bacteria, one of the few in the phylum Aquificota. Type species is H. thermophilus. This genus belongs to Bacteria as opposed to the other inhabitants of extreme environments, the Archaea.
Peteryoungia aggregata is a gram-negative bacterium of the genus Peteryoungia.
Pseudorhizobium is a genus of bacteria from the family Rhizobiaceae.
Euzebya is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria.
Rhodanobacteraceae is a family of bacteria of the order Xanthomonadales. The type genus is Rhodanobacter.
Xaviernesmea is a genus of bacteria from the family Rhizobiaceae.
