Burkholderiaceae
The Burkholderiaceae are a family of bacteria included in the order Burkholderiales.Garrity, George M.; Brenner, Don J.; Krieg, Noel R.; Staley, James T. (eds.) (2005). Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology, Volume Two: The Proteobacteria, Part C: The Alpha-, Beta-, Delta-, and Epsilonproteobacteria. New York, New York: Springer. . It includes some pathogenic species, such as ''Burkholderia mallei'' (glanders) and ''Burkholderia pseudomallei'' (melioidosis). 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).

Burkholderia Mallei
''Burkholderia mallei'' is a Gram-negative, bipolar, aerobic bacterium, a human and animal pathogen of genus '' Burkholderia'' causing glanders; the Latin name of this disease (''malleus'') gave its name to the species causing it. It is closely related to '' B. pseudomallei,'' and by multilocus sequence typing it is a subspecies of ''B. pseudomallei.'' ''B. mallei'' evolved from ''B. pseudomallei'' by selective reduction and deletions from the ''B. pseudomallei'' genome. Unlike ''B. pseudomallei'' and other genus members, ''B. mallei'' is nonmotile; its shape is coccobacillary measuring some 1.5–3.0 μm in length and 0.5–1.0 μm in diameter with rounded ends. Discovery and early history Wilhelm Schütz and Friedrich Löffler first isolated ''B. mallei'' in 1882. It was isolated from an infected liver and spleen of a horse. This bacterium is also one of the first to be identified containing a type VI secretion system which is important for ...

All species of ''Chitinimonas'' have been found in regions of Asia. Species of this genus are found to be both aerobic and anaerobic. ''Chitinimonas'' is optimally grown and cultured at 25 °C to 37 °C, with very little concentrations of NaCl Sodium chloride , commonly known as edible salt, is an ionic compound with the chemical formula NaCl, representing a 1:1 ratio of sodium and chloride ions. It is transparent or translucent, brittle, hygroscopic, and occurs as the mineral hali ....

Polynucleobacter
''Polynucleobacter'' is a genus of bacteria, originally established by Heckmann and Schmidt (1987) to exclusively harbor obligate endosymbionts of ciliates belonging to the genus ''Euplotes''. Recently, several new ''Polynucleobacter'' species were described, which all represent free-living (i.e. not host-associated) planktonic freshwater bacteria. Thus, the genus ''Polynucleobacter'' currently includes one species containing obligate endosymbionts of ciliates and nine species representing free-living planktonic strains. The type strains of the planktonic species were isolated from freshwater systems located in Antarctica, Armenia, Austria, China, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Norway, Spain, Uganda, and the United States. Currently, the genus harbors 31 species. Free-living ''Poynucleobacter'' bacteria represent important members of bacterioplankton in freshwater systems such as lakes, ponds, and streams.

Paucimonas
''Paucimonas lemoignei'', formerly 'Pseudomonas lemoignei'' is a Gram-negative soil bacterium. It is aerobic, motile, and rod-shaped. Basic Information * Straight to slightly curved rods. Motile by a single polar flagellum. Endospores not found. * The only known habitat is soil, particularly the rhizosphere, but not associated with plants. * Obligate aerobic. Chemoorganotrophic. Characterized by restricted metabolism. * Most strains are able to fix nitrogen. * Grows between pH 5.5 and 9.0. Optimum temperature is near 30 °C, but no growth is observed above 41 °C. * Colonies are circular, small, white to beige, and adherent to the agar. Taxonomy ''P. lemoignei'' is established by Delafield ''et al.'' in 1965, and transferred by Jendrossek in 2001 after reevaluating its 16S rDNA sequence. This is a big shift from one class to another. ''P. lemoignei'' is so far the only species under the genus ''Paucimonas.'' "''Paucus''" means little or few. "''Paucimonas''" re ...

Paraburkholderia
''Paraburkholderia'' is a genus of Pseudomonadota that are gram negative, slightly curved Bacillus (shape), rods that are motile by means of flagella. ''Paraburkholderia'' members are usually environmental bacteria, including some that can associate with plants or form root nodules, and unlike ''Burkholderia'' species are not commonly associated with human infection. ''Paraburkholderia'' members form a monophyletic clade within the Burkholderiaceae family, which is what prompted their distinction as a genus independent from ''Burkholderia'' species, in combination with the finding of robust conserved signature indels which are unique to ''Paraburkholderia'' species, and are lacking in members of the genus ''Burkholderia''. These CSIs distinguish the genus from all other bacteria. Additionally, the CSIs that were found to be shared by ''Burkholderia'' species are absent in ''Paraburkholderia'', providing evidence of separate lineages. Conserved signature indels have also been f ...
