Pseudomonadota (synonym Proteobacteria) is a major phylum of Gram-negative bacteria.[10] Currently, they are considered the predominant phylum within the realm of bacteria.[11] They are naturally found as pathogenic and free-living (non-parasitic) genera.[11] The phylum comprises six classes Acidithiobacillia, Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, Gammaproteobacteria, Hydrogenophilia, and Zetaproteobacteria.[11] The Pseudomonadota are widely diverse, with differences in morphology, metabolic processes, relevance to humans, and ecological influence.[11]
