  2. Mycobacterium leprae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mycobacterium_leprae

    It is an aerobic bacillus (rod-shaped bacterium) with parallel sides and round ends, surrounded by the characteristic waxy coating of mycolic acid unique to mycobacteria. It is Gram-positive by Gram staining , but Mycobacterium leprae was traditionally stained with carbol fuchsin in the Ziehl–Neelsen stain .

  3. Clostridium tetani - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clostridium_tetani

    Clostridium tetani is a rod-shaped, Gram-positive bacterium, typically up to 0.5 μm wide and 2.5 μm long. [1] It is motile by way of various flagella that surround its body. [1] C. tetani cannot grow in the presence of oxygen. [1] It grows best at temperatures ranging from 33 to 37 °C. [1]

  4. Bacterial morphological plasticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_morphological...

    Bacterial morphological plasticity refers to changes in the shape and size that bacterial cells undergo when they encounter stressful environments. Although bacteria have evolved complex molecular strategies to maintain their shape, many are able to alter their shape as a survival strategy in response to protist predators, antibiotics, the immune response, and other threats.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacterial_cellular...

    A bacillus (pl.: bacilli), also called a bacilliform bacterium or often just a rod (when the context makes the sense clear), is a rod-shaped bacterium or archaeon. Bacilli are found in many different taxonomic groups of bacteria. However, the name Bacillus, capitalized and italicized, refers to a specific genus of bacteria.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_human_microbiota

    Human microbiota are microorganisms (bacteria, viruses, fungi and archaea) found in a specific environment. They can be found in the stomach, intestines, skin, genitals and other parts of the body. [1] Various body parts have diverse microorganisms. Some microbes are specific to certain body parts and others are associated with many microbiomes.

  8. Fusobacterium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusobacterium

    Fusobacterium is a genus of obligate anaerobic, Gram-negative, [2] non-sporeforming bacteria [3] belonging to Gracilicutes. Individual cells are slender, rod-shaped bacilli with pointed ends. [4] [5] Fusobacterium was discovered in 1900 by Courmont and Cade and is common in the flora of humans. [6] [7]

  9. Aeromonas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aeromonas

    Aeromonas is a genus of Gram-negative, facultative anaerobic, rod-shaped, bacteria that morphologically resemble members of the family Enterobacteriaceae. Most of the 14 described species have been associated with human diseases. The most important pathogens are A. hydrophila, A. caviae, and A. veronii biovar sobria. The organisms are ...
