Alteromonadales
The Alteromonadales are an order of Pseudomonadota. Although they have been treated as a single family, the Alteromonadaceae, they were divided into eight by Ivanova ''et al.'' in 2004. The cells are straight or curved rods. They are motile by the use of a single flagellum A flagellum (; : flagella) (Latin for 'whip' or 'scourge') is a hair-like appendage that protrudes from certain plant and animal sperm cells, from fungal spores ( zoospores), and from a wide range of microorganisms to provide motility. Many pr .... Most of the species are marine. References * George M. Garrity: ''Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology''. 2. Auflage.

Motilimonas
''Motilimonas'' is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming and facultatively anaerobic genus of bacteria from the family Alteromonadales with one known species ('' Motilimonas eburnea''). ''Motilimonas eburnea'' has been isolated from marine sediments from Weihai in China China, officially the People's Republic of China (PRC), is a country in East Asia. With population of China, a population exceeding 1.4 billion, it is the list of countries by population (United Nations), second-most populous country after ....

Aestuariicella
''Aestuariicella'' is a rod-shaped, Gram-negative, and strictly aerobic genus of bacteria from the order Alteromonadales with one known species ('' Aestuariicella hydrocarbonica''). ''Aestuariicella hydrocarbonica'' was first isolated in 2015 from oil spill contaminated tidal flat sediments from the Dangjin bay in Korea. Due to the recent nature of its discovery, its taxonomic classification has not yet been accepted. Future research into its evolutionary history and genome may change the naming of this organism. While rare in seawater, ''A. hydrocarbonica'' has shown a strong association with plastic debris of various polymer types. It is commonly found along with other gammaproteobacteria capable of degrading hydrocarbons and other high-molecular-mass polymers. Bio-degradation tests have shown that it is capable of breaking down a variety of hydrocarbon polymers. However, it does not degrade the plant polymers casein and starch Starch or amylum is a polymeric carbohyd ...

Colwelliaceae
The Colwelliaceae are a family of Pseudomonadota Pseudomonadota (synonym "Proteobacteria") is a major phylum of gram-negative bacteria. Currently, they are considered the predominant phylum within the domain of bacteria. They are naturally found as pathogenic and free-living (non- parasitic) .... This family consists of facultative anaerobes and has non-motile and motile members. Colwelliaceae a family containing Gram-negative bacteria with rod to curved rod shaped cells that play a role in the decomposition of organic matter. With the family also containing facultative anaerobes, means that they are also they can grow with the presence of oxygen and without the presence of oxygen. As well as certain Colwelliaceae such as Colwellia psychrerythraea are psychrophilic bacteria meaning they can thrive in cold environments with them thriving at around the temperature of . They are usually found in cold marine environments such as sea ice, the pelagic zone particulates, and superf ...

Shewanella Oneidensis
''Shewanella oneidensis'' is a bacterium notable for its ability to reduce metal ions and live in environments with or without oxygen. This proteobacterium was first isolated from Lake Oneida, NY in 1988, hence its name. ''Shewanella oneidensis'' is a facultative bacterium, capable of surviving and proliferating in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. The special interest in ''S. oneidensis'' MR-1 revolves around its behavior in an anaerobic environment contaminated by heavy metals such as iron, lead and uranium. Experiments suggest it may reduce ionic mercury to elemental mercury and ionic silver to elemental silver. Cellular respiration for these bacteria is not restricted to heavy metals though; the bacteria can also target sulfates, nitrates and chromates when grown anaerobically. Name This species is referred to as ''S. oneidensis'' MR-1, indicating "manganese reducing", a special feature of this organism. It is a common misconception to think that MR-1 refers to "me ...

Shewanellaceae
''Shewanella'' is the sole genus included in the marine bacteria family Shewanellaceae. Some species within it were formerly classed as '' Alteromonas''. ''Shewanella'' consists of facultatively anaerobic Gram-negative rods, most of which are found in extreme aquatic habitats where the temperature is very low and the pressure is very high. ''Shewanella'' bacteria are a normal component of the surface flora of fish and are implicated in fish spoilage. ''Shewanella chilikensis'', a species of the genus ''Shewanella'' commonly found in the marine sponges of Saint Martin's Island of the Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh. ''Shewanella oneidensis'' MR-1 is a widely used laboratory model to study anaerobic respiration of metals and other anaerobic extracellular electron acceptors, and for teaching about microbial electrogenesis and microbial fuel cells. Biochemical characteristics of ''Shewanella'' species Colony, morphological, physiological, and biochemical characteristics of ''Shewanell ...
