Description and emendation
Original Description
expand / minimize
The Enterobacterales are an order of Gram-negative, non-spore forming, rod-shaped, facultative anaerobes. The order contains the type genus Enterobacter as well as the families Enterobacteriaceae, Erwiniaceae, Pectobacteriaceae, Yersiniaceae, Hafniaceae, Morganellaceae and Budviciaceae. The description of the order is the same as that of the family Enterobacteriaceae given by Brenner and Farmer III (2005) with the following modifications: the members of the order Enterobacterales can be distinguished from all other bacteria by the five conserved signature indels in the proteins peptide ABC transporter permease, elongation factor P-like protein YeiP, L-arabinose isomerase, pyrophosphatase, and a hypothetical protein.
