Purple nonsulfur bacteria…• Metabolically flexible
– normally grow anaerobically as anoxygenic photoorganoheterotrophs• possess bacteriochlorophylls a or b in• some can use low levels of H2S as electron
source– in absence of light, most grow aerobically as
chemoorganoheterotrophs– in absence of light, some carry out
fermentations and grow anaerobically

Purple nonsulfur bacteria…
• Found in mud and water of lakes and ponds with abundant organic matter and low sulfide levels; some marine species
• Many genera can produce cellular cysts– resting cells– resistant to desiccation but less tolerant of
heat and UV than bacterial endspores– made in response to nutrient limitation– have thick outer coat and store
polyhydroxybutyrate

Rickettsiales; family Rickettsiaceae
• Genus Coxiella– class Gammaproteobacteria; order
Legionellales; family CoxiellaceaeThese are considered together because of
important similarities

erythrocytes, macrophages, and vascular endothelial cells
• also live in blood-sucking arthropods, which serve as vectors or primary hosts

Escherichia coli
• Probably best studied bacterium
• inhabitant of intestinal tracts of many animals
• Used as indicator organisms for testing water for fecal contamination
• Some strains are pathogenic– gastroenteritis– urinary tract infections

• aerobic, chemoorganotrophic predators• anaerobic, chemoorganotrophic sulfur-
and sulfate-reducers

Orders Desulfovibrionales, Desulfobacterales, and Desulfuromonadales
• Strict anaerobes• Sulfur- or sulfate-reducing bacteria
– use sulfur and sulfate as electron acceptors during anaerobic respiration
– electron transport chain used to generate ATP
• Widespread in muds and sediments of aquatic environments, including sewage treatment systems– important in sulfur cycling
