Veillonella, Firmicutes: Microbes disguised as Gram negatives
Standards in Genomic Sciences, 2013 The Firmicutes represent a major component of the intestinal microflora. The intestinal Firmicutes are a large, diverse group of organisms, many of which are poorly characterized due to their anaerobic growth requirements. Although most Firmicutes are Gram positive, members of the class Negativicutes, including the genus Veillonella, stain Gram ...
