The Bacteroidales form an order within the division of the Bacteroidetes . It is the only order of the class Bacteroidia .
Appearance
The gram test is negative. There are cocci-shaped and rod-shaped species. Fusiform (spindle-shaped) rods also occur, e.g. B. Tannerella forsythia . Spores are not formed. Some species are motile by sliding movements , others are immobile.
Occurrence
The species can be found in many different habitats . Thus, species of marinilabilia have been isolated from sea mud. Species of Blattabacterium (family Blattabacteriaceae ) have been found in termites and cockroaches , and Bacteroides in human intestines.
Pathogenicity
Within the bacteroid there are also some human pathogenic species. Thus, Bacteroides fragilis and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron opportunistic pathogens of humans.
Systematics
The class Bacteroidia contains two orders, the Bacteroidales and the Marinilabiliales . The system in detail (as of September 2018):
- Class Bacteroidia
- Order Bacteroidales
- Family Bacteroidaceae
- Family Balneicellaceae
- Lentimicrobiaceae family
- Marinifilaceae family
- Marinilabiliaceae family
- Family Odoribacteraceae
- Family Porphyromonadaceae
- Prevotellaceae family
- Family Prolixibacteraceae
- Rikenellaceae family
- Order Marinilabiliales
- Salinivirgaceae family
- Order Bacteroidales
The genera Phocaeicola and Sunxiuqinia have not yet been assigned to any family.
ecology
The individual species are mostly anaerobic . Also optional anaerobic, i.e. H. able to tolerate oxygen are present. The anaerobic genus Bacteroides is the most common type of bacteria in the human intestine with 10 11 cells per gram.
