Family of bacteria
The Bacillaceae are a family of gram-positive , heterotrophic , rod-shaped bacteria that may produce endospores .[ 1] Motile members of this family are characterized by peritrichous flagella. Some Bacillaceae are aerobic , while others are facultative or strict anaerobes . Most are not pathogenic , but Bacillus species are known to cause disease in humans.
Gram-variable cell wall
Some Bacillaceae, such as the genera Filobacillus , Lentibacillus , and Halobacillus , stain Gram-negative or Gram-variable, but are known to have a Gram-positive cell wall.[ 2]
Nomenclature
Taxa within this family are sometimes colloquially identified as "bacilli". However, this term is ambiguous because it does not distinguish between class Bacilli , order Bacillales , family Bacillaceae, and genus Bacillus .
Genera
The polyphyletic family Bacillaceae comprises the following:
