Course objectives
Bacterial taxonomy summarise a phylogenetic position of microorganisms from Prokaryotae domain and set a concept of systematic. Archaea are mentioned only in basic features of families and genera. The main attention is to domain Bacteria dividing in this lecture into three parts. The first is aimed to Gram negative cocci and rods including straight and curved bacteria or bacteria with gliding motility; on the base of aerobic conditions are mentioned aerobic, facultative anaerobic and anaerobic taxons. The second part includes Gram positive cocci and rods - aerobic, facultative anaerobic and obligate anaerobic; regular or irregular; sporeforming and nonsporeforming. The last part of lecture indicate data about morphologically different prokaryote, such as mycoplasmas, mycobacteria, nokardioform or mycelium forming bacteria and intracellular parasites from ricketsia group.
