Microorganisms can be, according to their characteristics, divided into several groups: 1  bacteria, viruses, certain fungi and parasites. 2  pathogenic (capable of causing disease), non-pathogenic, and opportunistic (causing disease when they have an opportunity, like in people with low immune system).xamples of bacteria pathogenic for a human are: 1  Staphylococcus aureus, causing skin infections, pneumonia, infection of the heart valves, etc. 2  Streptococcus pyogenes, causing âstrep throatâ, cellulitis, etc. 3  Neisseria gonorrheae, causing gonorrhea.
Pathogenic bacteria are bacteria which are capable of causing disease. Humans are generally most interested in the species of bacteria which can cause disease in humans, although these bacteria can also infect other animals and plants. Some notable pathogenic bacteria include Streptococcus, Staphylococcus, Tuberculosis, and Escherichia coli, among many others.
