Stenotrophomonas indicatrix is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium related to the important environmental and opportunistic pathogen Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. It has been isolated from diverse soil and plant-associated environments. This aerobic chemoheterotroph degrades a wide range of organic compounds in terrestrial habitats.

Stenotrophomonas nitritireducens is a Gram-negative rod with the ability to reduce nitrite, a key step in nitrogen cycling. It inhabits activated sludge and wastewater treatment environments where nitrogen compounds are abundant. This metabolically versatile bacterium contributes to denitrification processes in engineered and natural aquatic systems.
