Stenotrophomonas humi is a gram-negative, aerobic bacterium in the family Xanthomonadaceae, originally isolated from soil (humus). Like other members of its genus, it is metabolically versatile and adapted to a variety of terrestrial environments. Its conservation status is not evaluated.
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.
