Chapter 11 Flashcards
ALPHAPROTEOBACTERIA
most proteobacteria that can grow with low lelvels of nutrients
agriculuturally important: nitrogen fixation
Pelagibacter
ocean.
carbon cycle
Alphaproteobacteria
Azospirillum
soil, fixes nitrogen from atmosphere
Alphaproteobacteria
Acetobacter and GLuconobacter
inudtrially important: convert ethanol to acetic acid
aerobic
Alphaproteobacteria
Rickettsia
intracellular parasites
gram neg, rodshaped
transmission by bites
Alphaproteobacteria
Ehrilichia
gram neg
ticks
affect white blood cells
Alphaproteobacteria
Rhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, Agrobacterium
agriculture: infect roots of legumes
symbiotic
fix nigrogen from air
plasmids can cause disease
Alphaproteobacteria
Bartonella
human pathogens
Alphaproteobacteria
Brucella
nonmotile, coccobaccili
all are parasites of mammals
survive phagocytosis
Alphaproteobacteria
Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas
nitrigy
use inorganics as carbon diexode source
reduce nitrogenous compounds
Alphaproteobacteria
Wolbachia
infectious (most common)
insects
only live in host cells
Alphaproteobacteria
BETAPROTEOBACTERIA
nitrifying
pathogenic
Thiobacillus
sulfer oxidizing
Betaproteobacteria
Spirillum
freshwater
aerobic
Betaproteobacteria
Sphaerotilus
sheatheed
freshwater and sewage treatment
polar flagella
Betaproteobacteria
Birkholderia
aerobic
degrades lots of things
Betaproteobacteria
Bordetella
nonmotile, aerobic
whooping cough
Betaproteobacteria
Neisseria
aerobic
mucous membranes
ghonorrheoa and meningitis
Betaproteobacteria
Zoologea
aerobic sewage treatment
Betaproteobacteria
Beggiatoa
aquatic sediments
not pgotosenthetic
produce slime
Gammaproteobacteria
Francisella
grow with blood and tissue
Gammaproteobacteria
Pseudomonadales
gram negative rods
common in soil
infect burns, wounds, urinary tract, blood
hospitals
Gammaproteobacteria
azotobacter and azomonas
nitogen fixing
free living in soil
Gammaproteobacteria
acinetobacter
soil and water
resistant to antibotics
in hospitals
high mortality rate
Gammaproteobacteria
Legionella
common in streams
hard to erradicate in water sustems
Gammaproteobacteria
coxiella
Q fever require mammal host tick bites comtaminated milk and aerosols spore like, resistant to stress
Gammaproteobacteria
Vibrio
curved rods
cholera
in water and undercooked shell fish
Gammaproteobacteria
Enterobacteriales
intestinal tracts of humans specialized sex pili for transmssion of DNA E. COLI SALMONELLA SHIGELLA KLEBSIELLA usually not pathogenic antibiotic resistant
Gammaproteobacteria
Salmonella
potentially pathogenic
lots of serological varieties
typhoid fever
Gammaproteobacteria
Shigella
dysentery
Gammaproteobacteria
