relaalisella
Relaisella is a genus of bacteria from the family Enterobacteriaceae. It is a Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium. Relaisella species are commonly found in the environment, particularly in soil and water, and are also associated with various hosts, including humans, animals, and plants. The genus was first described in 1995, and it currently includes two recognized species: Relaisella melitensis and Relaisella intracellularis.
Relaisella melitensis is a significant pathogen for honeybees, causing a disease known as American foulbrood. This
Relaisella intracellularis, on the other hand, is a human pathogen that can cause infections in immunocompromised
The genus Relaisella is named after the French microbiologist Jean Relais, who made significant contributions to
Relaisella species are typically cultured on nutrient-rich agar media and can be identified using biochemical tests
