Lifestyle Evolution in Alpha-Proteobacteria
Interestingly, species from a group called Ochrobactrum, which is most closely related to Brucella has been isolated from an astonishing number of different sources…..For example, Ochrobactrum is frequently isolated from Humans for which it is considered an opportunistic pathogen.
Moreover, two species have been shown to form associations with the nematode pathogen and insect - symbiont P. Luminescens in its nematode host…and another is a nitrogen fixing symbiont of Anaplasma……Ochrobactrum species have been described as free living, but since the majority of isolates are from patients, and since most environmental strains are from the Rhizosphere, this description may not be entirely correct…
Other related species of Alpha-Proteobacteria include :
Bartonella, Brucella, Ochrobactrum, Mesorhizobium, Agrobacterium, Sinorhizobium, Rhodopseudomonas, Bradyrhizobium, Gaulobacter, Rickettsia, Wolbachia, Anaplasma and Erlichia
