what occurs to purple nonsulfur bacteria in the absence of light?
they grow aerobically as chemoorganotrophs
can produce cellualar cysts in response to nutrient limitation
Purple nonsulfer bacteria
Resistant to desiccation and have thick outer coat and store polybhydroxybutyrate
purple nonsulfur bacteria cysts
what alphaproteobacteria contain protheca?
Caulobacterales
what are prostheca?
extensions of cell with PM and CW that is narrower thn mature cell
In the genus Caulobacter, asymmetric transverse fission produces a flagellated_______ cell that swims off but eventually settles, ejects its flagella, and forms a _____that adheres to surfaces.
swarmer stalk
grows symbiotically as nitrogen fixing bacteroids within legume roots nodules
Rhizobiales
pleomorphic under adverse conditions
Rhizobiales
causes crown gall disease by means of tumor inducing plasmid

Brucellosis
growth that is uspportd by assimilation of C1 compunds
methanoptrophs
use methane as carbon and energy source
