  2. Bacterial taxonomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_taxonomy

    Bacterial taxonomy is the classification of strains within the domain Bacteria into hierarchies of similarity. This classification is similar to that of plants, mammals, and other taxonomies. However, biologists specializing in different areas have developed differing taxonomic conventions over time.

  3. List of bacterial orders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bacterial_orders

    This article lists the orders of the Bacteria.The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) [1] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) [2] and the phylogeny is based on 16S rRNA-based LTP release 132 by The All-Species Living Tree Project.

  4. List of bacteria genera - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bacteria_genera

    The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) [1] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). [2] However many taxonomic names are taken from the GTDB release 08-RS214 (28 April 2023).

  5. Microbial phylogenetics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_phylogenetics

    Matching oligonucleotides in different bacteria could be compared to one another to determine how closely the organisms were related. In 1977, after collecting and comparing 16s rRNA fragments for almost 200 species of bacteria, Woese and his team in 1977 concluded that Archaebacteria were not part of Bacteria but completely independent organisms.

    Bacteria (/ b æ k ˈ t ɪər i ə / ⓘ; sg.: bacterium) are ubiquitous, mostly free-living organisms often consisting of one biological cell.They constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms.

    Microbial taxonomy: the naming and classification of microorganisms Bacterial taxonomy: the naming and classification of bacteria; Microbial systematics: the study of the diversity and genetic relationship of microorganisms; Microbial phylogenetics: the study of the manner in which various groups of microorganisms are genetically related [4]

  8. Microorganism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microorganism

    Bacteria have an enclosing cell wall, which provides strength and rigidity to their cells. They reproduce by binary fission or sometimes by budding, but do not undergo meiotic sexual reproduction. However, many bacterial species can transfer DNA between individual cells by a horizontal gene transfer process referred to as natural transformation ...

  9. Pseudomonadota - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudomonadota

    The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LSPN) [20] and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). [21] The group Pseudomonadota is defined based on ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequencing, and are divided into several subclasses. These subclasses were regarded as such for ...
