    It is also capable of infecting plants in a laboratory setting. [10] Burkholderia pseudomallei measures 2–5 μm in length and 0.4–0.8 μm in diameter and is capable of self-propulsion using flagella. The bacteria can grow in a number of artificial nutrient environments, especially betaine- and arginine-containing ones.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burkholderia_mallei

    Burkholderia mallei and B. pseudomallei have a history of being on a list of potential biological warfare agents. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention classifies B. mallei as a category B critical biological agent. [7] As a result, research regarding B. mallei may only be done in biosafety level 3 facilities in the US and internationally.

    Burkholderia is a genus of Pseudomonadota whose pathogenic members include the Burkholderia cepacia complex, which attacks humans and Burkholderia mallei, responsible for glanders, a disease that occurs mostly in horses and related animals; Burkholderia pseudomallei, causative agent of melioidosis; and Burkholderia cepacia, an important pathogen of pulmonary infections in people with cystic ...

    It includes some pathogenic species, such as Burkholderia mallei and Burkholderia pseudomallei (melioidosis). [5] This family was found to be enriched in scale-eating pupfish (Cyprinodon desquamator) guts, even after being fed a common laboratory diet, suggesting it may aid in scale-digestion (Heras and Martin 2022).

    The Burkholderiales are an order of Betaproteobacteria in the phylum Pseudomonadota. [3] Like all Pseudomonadota, they are Gram-negative.They include several pathogenic bacteria, including species of Burkholderia, Bordetella, and Ralstonia. [3]

  8. Melioidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melioidosis

    Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by a gram-negative bacterium called Burkholderia pseudomallei. [1] Most people exposed to B. pseudomallei experience no symptoms; however, those who do experience symptoms have signs and symptoms that range from mild, such as fever and skin changes, to severe with pneumonia, abscesses, and septic shock that could cause death. [1]
