Microbiology an Introduction Thirteenth Edition Chapter 10 Classification of Microorganisms Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved The Study of Phylogenetic Relationships Learning Objectives 10-1 Define taxonomy, taxon, and phylogeny. 10-3 Identify the contributions of Linnaeus, Whittaker, and Woese. 10-4 Discuss the advantages of the three-domain system. 10-5 List the characteristics of the Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya domains. Taxonomy is the science of classifying organisms – Shows degree of similarity among organisms Systematics, or phylogeny, is the study of the evolutionary history of organisms Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved The Study of Phylogenetic Relationships continued 1735: Linnaeus—kingdoms Plantae and Animalia 1800s: Bacteria and fungi put in kingdom Plantae (Nägeli); Kingdom Protista proposed for bacteria, protozoa, algae, and fungi (Haeckel) 1937: Prokaryote introduced to distinguish cells without a nucleus 1968: Murray—kingdom Prokaryotae 1969: Whittaker—five-kingdom system Prokaryotae (Monera), Protista, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia, Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved The Three Domains Developed by Woese in 1978; based on sequences of nucleotides in rRNA Eukarya – Animals, plants, fungi Bacteria Archaea – Methanogens – Extreme halophiles – Hyperthermophiles Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Three-Domain System continued Key Concepts All organisms evolved from cells that formed over 3 billion years ago. The DNA passed on from ancestors is described as conserved. The Domain Eukarya includes the kingdoms Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia, as well as protists. The Domains Bacteria and Archaea are prokaryotes. These similarities are the result of evolution, or descent from a common ancestor Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc.

All Rights Reserved Scientific Nomenclature Learning Objectives 10-6 Explain why scientific names are used. 10-7 List the major taxa. 10-9 List the major characteristics used to differentiate the three kingdoms of multicellular Eukarya. 10-11 Differentiate eukaryotic, prokaryotic, and viral species. Common names vary with languages and geography Binomial nomenclature is used worldwide to consistently and accurately name organisms – Genus – Specific epithet (species) The Taxonomic Hierarchy A series of subdivisions developed by Linnaeus to classify plants and animals Eukaryotic species: a group of closely related organisms that breed among themselves Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Classification of Prokaryotes Prokaryotic species: a population of cells with similar characteristics – Culture: bacteria grown in laboratory media – Clone: population of cells derived from a single parent cell – Strain: genetically different cells within a clone Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Figure 10.6 Phylogenetic Relationships of Prokaryotes Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Classification of Eukaryotes Protista: a catchall kingdom for a variety of organisms; autotrophic and heterotrophic – Grouped into clades based on rRNA Fungi: chemoheterotrophic; unicellular or multicellular; cell walls of chitin; develop from spores or hyphal fragments Plantae: multicellular; cellulose cell walls; undergo photosynthesis Animalia: multicellular; no cell walls; chemoheterotrophic Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Classification of Viruses Not a part of any domain; not composed of cells; require a host cell Viral species: population of viruses with similar characteristics that occupies a particular ecological niche Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Methods of Classifying and Identifying Microorganisms Learning Objectives 10-13 Explain the purpose of Bergey's Manual. 10-14 Describe how staining and biochemical tests are used to identify bacteria. 10-15 Differentiate Western blotting from Southern blotting. 10-16 Explain how serological tests and phage typing can be used to identify an unknown bacterium. 10-17 Describe how a newly discovered microbe can be classified by DNA sequencing, DNA fingerprinting, and PCR. 10-18 Describe how microorganisms can be identified by nucleic acid hybridization, Southern blotting, DNA chips, ribotyping, and FISH. Classification: placing organisms in groups of related species – Lists of characteristics of known organisms Identification: matching characteristics of an "unknown" organism to lists of known organisms – Clinical lab identification Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc.

All Rights Reserved Methods of Classifying and Identifying Microorganisms continued Bergey's Manual of Determinative Bacteriology provides identification schemes for identifying bacteria and archaea Morphological characteristics: useful for identifying eukaryotes; tell little about phylogenetic relationships Differential staining: Gram staining, acid- fast staining; not useful for bacteria without cell walls Biochemical tests: determine presence of bacterial enzymes Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc. All Rights Reserved Methods of Classifying and Identifying Microorganisms continued Biochemical Tests Rapid identification methods perform several biochemical tests simultaneously – Results of each test are assigned a number Copyright © 2019 Pearson Education, Inc.
