Phototrophic bacteria

Chloroflexales is one of two orders of bacteria in the class Chloroflexi.

Herpetosiphon is a genus of bacteria in the family Herpetosiphonaceae.

Chlorobium chlorochromatii, originally known as Chlorobium aggregatum, is a symbiotic green sulfur bacteria that performs anoxygenic photosynthesis and functions as an obligate photoautotroph using reduced sulfur species as electron donors.

Rhodoferax is a genus of Betaproteobacteria belonging to the purple nonsulfur bacteria, a polyphyletic group of phototrophic bacteria.

Heliothrix oregonensis is a phototrophic filamentous, gliding bacterium containing bacteriochlorophyll athat is aerotolerant and photoheterotrophic.

Chromatium is a genus of photoautotrophic Gram-negative bacteria which are found in water.

The Chloroflexi or Chlorobacteria are a phylum of bacteria containing isolates with a diversity of phenotypes including members that are aerobic thermophiles, which use oxygen and grow well in high temperatures, anoxygenic phototrophs, which use light for photosynthesis (green non-sulfur bacteria), and anaerobic halorespirers, which uses halogenated organics (such as the toxic chlorinated ethenes and polychlorinated biphenyls) as energy sources.

In taxonomy, Halobacterium is a genus of the Halobacteriaceae.

Chlorobium (also known as Chlorochromatium) is a genus of green sulfur bacteria.

Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a kind of purple bacteria; a group of bacteria that can obtain energy through photosynthesis.

Rhodobacter capsulatus is a species of purple bacteria, a group of bacteria that can obtain energy through photosynthesis.

Herpetosiphon giganteus is a species of bacteria in the genus Herpetosiphon known to produce 16 restriction enzymes.

Herpetosiphonaceae is a family of bacteria in the order Herpetosiphonales.

Herpetosiphonales is one of two orders of bacteria in the class Chloroflexi.

Chlorobium tepidum is an anaerobic, thermophilic green sulfur bacteria first isolated from New Zealand.
