Learning Objectives. Describe the unique features of each class within the phylum Proteobacteria: Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria, and Epsilonproteobacteria. Give an example of a bacterium in each class of Proteobacteria.
The “Betaproteobacteria” (at least 75 genera and 220 species) clearly represent a monophyletic group within the larger phylogenetic lineage composed of the β-γ proteobacterial complex, named Chromatibacteria by Cavalier-Smith (Cavalier-Smith, 2002; Table 2). From the metabolic, morphological and ecological viewpoint, the ...

Dec 24, 2022 · The Proteobacteria are a major group (phylum) of bacteria. They include a wide variety of pathogens, such as Escherichia, Salmonella, Vibrio, Helicobacter, and many other notable genera. Others are free-living, and include many of the bacteria responsible for nitrogen fixation.
Ecological Impact. See also. References. External links. Pseudomonadota (synonym Proteobacteria) is a major phylum of Gram-negative bacteria. [10] . Currently, they are considered the predominant phylum within the realm of bacteria. [11] . They are naturally found as pathogenic and free-living (non- parasitic) genera. [11] .
