rhodobacteraceae rhodobacteraceae the rhodobacteraceae are a family of pseudomonadota in the order rhodobacterales within the alpha subgroup. like all pseudomonadota, they are gram-negative. it contains chemoorganotrophs and photoheterotrophs bacteria. many occur in aquatic habitats. rhodobacteraceae scientific classification domain: bacteria phylum: pseudomonadota class: alphaproteobacteria
