Terrabacter is a genus of Gram positive, strictly aerobic, non-sporeforming bacteria. The genus name is derived from Latin terra (earth), referring to the type species' original isolation from soil. [3] The genus was first proposed in 1989; however, the type species Terrabacter tumescens was originally described in 1934, and had previously been classified in the genera Corynebacterium , Arthrobacter , and Pimelobacter . [4] [5] [6] [1] Terrabacter species have been isolated from soil, air and stone. [7]
Halomonadaceae is a family of halophilic Pseudomonadota.
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
Agromyces is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria).
Thermoanaerobacter acetoethylicus, formerly called Thermobacteroides acetoethylicus, is a species of thermophilic, nonspore-forming bacteria.
Desulfosporosinus is a genus of strictly anaerobic, sulfate-reducing bacteria, often found in soil.
Psychrobacter is a genus of Gram-negative, osmotolerant, oxidase-positive, psychrophilic or psychrotolerant, aerobic bacteria which belong to the family Moraxellaceae and the class Gammaproteobacteria. The shape is typically cocci or coccobacilli. Some of those bacteria were isolated from humans and can cause humans infections such as endocarditis and peritonitis. This genus of bacteria is able to grow at temperatures between −10 and 42 °C. Rudi Rossau found through DNA-rRNA hybridization analysis that Psychrobacter belongs to the Moraxellaceae. The first species was described by Juni and Heym. Psychrobacter occur in wide range of moist, cold saline habitats, but they also occur in warm and slightly saline habitats.
Pseudoxanthomonas is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria in the family Xanthomonadaceae from the phylum Pseudomonadota. This genus is closely related phylogenetically with the genera Xanthomonas, Xylella, and Stenotrophomonas. The genus was first distinguished in 2000 in biofilter samples, and was later emended by Lee et al. Some of the species in this genus are: P. mexicana, P. japonensis, P. koreensis, P. daejeonensis, and the type species P. broegbernensis.
Tepidibacter is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria in the family Clostridiaceae.
Tsukamurella is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped and obligate aerobic bacterial genus from the family of Tsukamurellaceae. Most of the strains of Tsukamurella degrade starch. Some Tsukamurella species can cause infections in humans.
Ammoniphilus is a Gram-variable, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, haloalkalitolerant spore-forming, obligately oxalotrophic and motile bacterial genus from the family of Paenibacillaceae with peritrichous flagella. In the cell wall of Ammoniphilus is meso-diaminopimelic acid.
Zobellia is a strictly aerobic genus from the family of Flavobacteriaceae. Zobellia bacteria occur in marine habitats.
Solirubrobacter is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, aerobic, mesophilic and non-motile genus of bacteria from the family Solirubrobacteraceae.
Dermacoccus is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, chemoorganotrophic and aerobic genus of bacteria from the family of Dermacoccaceae.
Oscillospiraceae is a family of bacteria in the class Clostridia. All Oscillospiraceae are obligate anaerobes. However, members of the family have diverse shapes, with some rod-shaped and others cocci.
Coprothermobacterota is a phylum of nonmotile, rod-shaped bacteria.
Coprothermobacteraceae is a new bacterial family of rod-shaped microorganisms, belonging to the order Coprothermobacterales, class Coprothermobacteria of the new phylum Coprothermobacterota.
Coprothermobacter is a genus of rod-shaped microorganisms, belonging to the new bacterial family Coprothermobacteraceae of the new 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.
Intrasporangium is a genus of Gram positive, nonmotile, endospore-forming bacteria. The genus name refers to the ability to form sporangia intercalary in the mycelial hyphae. The family Intrasporangiaceae is named after the genus, and Intrasporangium is the type genus for the family.
Terrabacter tumescens is a species of Gram-positive, mesophilic bacteria. Young cells are long rods, and older cultures are coccoid. It was first described in 1934, and its name is derived from Latin tume, referencing how older cells swell and break off new cells. It was initially isolated from soil. The optimum growth temperature for T. tumescens is 25-30 °C and can grow in the 10-35 °C range.
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.
