Usage Examples English
  • Lipophilic bacteria ("fat-loving bacteria") are bacteria that may proliferate in lipids.
  • Asymmetric bacteria are bacteria that undergo "non-symmetrical" life cycles. This especially includes those that differentiate temporally, such as prosthecate bacteria.
  • The tailocins are coded by prophage sequences in the bacteria genome, and the production will happen when a kin bacteria is spotted in the environment of the competitive bacteria.
  • Bacteria reproduce rapidly if conditions are right for growth. Most bacteria grow best in dark, warm, moist environments with food. When grown on solid media, some bacteria form colonies as they multiply which may grow large enough to be seen. By growing and counting colonies of fecal coliform bacteria from a sample of water, the amount of bacteria originally present can be determined.
  • Mineral salts pyridine broth is a selective medium for bacteria that can metabolize pyridine (which is an unusual carbon source that a select few types of bacteria can use). This medium is used to isolate bacteria belonging to the genus "Arthrobacter" among other bacteria genera.

  • Analysis of the evolutionary tree of bacteria suggests the ancestral bacterium was rod-shaped. Hendrickson studies the way bacteria like "Deinococcus", "Staphylococcus", and "Streptococcus" bacteria evolved a spherical shape.
  • Galippe recovered bacteria from gallstones and hypothesized that they were produced by bacteria. His theory of bacterial gallstone production however has gained little support although viable bacteria have been found within stones even in later studies.
  • Bacteria collective motion refers to the collective behavior of bacteria observed in the bacteria world.
  • L-form bacteria are strains bacteria that lack cell walls derived from bacteria that normally possess cell walls.
  • There are bacteria combining these two ways of nutrition: green sulfur bacteria and purple sulfur bacteria. Also sulfur-oxidizing bacteria can go into symbiosis with larger organisms, enabling the later to use hydrogen sulfide as food to be oxidized. Example: the giant tube worm.

  • Different types of bacteria can be differentiated on the agar by their color. Bacteria able to decarboxylate lysine will leave the media purple colored. Bacteria producing hydrogen sulfide will appear black.
  • Several groups of bacteria can conduct anoxygenic photosynthesis: green sulfur bacteria (GSB), red and green filamentous phototrophs (FAPs e.g. Chloroflexia), purple bacteria, acidobacteriota, and heliobacteria.
  • The other two major groups of photosynthetic bacteria, purple bacteria and green sulfur bacteria, contain only a single photosystem and do not produce oxygen.
  • The general trends of bacterial evolution indicate that bacteria started as free-living organisms. Evolutionary paths led some bacteria to become pathogens and symbionts. The lifestyles of bacteria play an integral role in their respective genome sizes. Free-living bacteria have the largest genomes out of the three types of bacteria; however, they have fewer pseudogenes than bacteria that have recently acquired pathogenicity.
  • The bioluminescence is produced by symbiotic bacteria; these bacteria are thought to enter the esca via an external duct (in at least two species, the esca is not luminous until this duct develops, suggesting the bacteria originate from the surrounding seawater). The bacteria, belonging to the family Vibrionaceae, are apparently different in each anglerfish species; the bacteria have yet to be cultured "in vitro".
