Prokaryotes that incorporate muramic acid into their cell walls. All bacteria exclusive of the archaebacteria. One of the three primary lines of descent in the living world.
(Greek, eu = true) The commonly occurring prokaryotes that live in water or soil, or within larger organisms; Archaebacteria and Eubacteria differ from each other in their metabolic abilities, the composition of their membranes, and the structure of their ribosomes.
All prokaryotes excluding the Archaea.
one of two major groups of prokaryotes; the other: archaebacteria
The kingdom of "true bacteria."
"true" bacteria, as distinguished from archaea. Like archaea they are single-celled organisms that possess chromosomes but lack a cell nucleus. They can be distinguished from archaea because many of their genes are very different from their archaeal equivalents.
a large group of bacteria having rigid cell walls; motile types have flagella
Prokaryotes that are distinct from archaeobacteria (see their respective definitions).
The subunit of the Monera that includes the true bacteria such as E. coli. One of the three major groups of prokaryotes in the Kingdom Monera. The eubacteria have cell walls containing peptidoglycan.
All other bacteria besides the archaebacteria.
All bacteria apart from the archaebacteria.
Prokaryotic organisms including the so-called true bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella typhimurium. Phylogenetically distinct from archaebacteria.
An alternative name for the domain bacteria (or true bacteria) as distinct from the archaebacteria or archaea.
