About

Burkholderia thailandensis is a Gram-negative, motile soil bacterium closely related to the dangerous pathogen Burkholderia pseudomallei but of low pathogenicity. It inhabits tropical and subtropical soils of Southeast Asia, particularly in Thailand where it was first described. This aerobic chemoheterotroph decomposes organic matter in tropical soils and is studied as a safer research model for its pathogenic relatives.
