ActinomycetalesRANK: OrderTAXONOMY: cellular organisms -> Bacteria -> Terrabacteria group -> Actinobacteria -> Actinobacteria -> Actinomycetales OVERVIEW: The 'Actinomycetales' are an order of Actinobacteria. They are very diverse and contain a variety of subdivisions, as well as yet-unclassified isolates, mainly because some genera are very difficult to classify because of a highly niche- dependent phenotype. For example, Nocardia contains several phenotypes first believed to be distinct species before their differences were shown to be entirely dependent on their growth conditions.
