Based on 16S rRNA sequence analysis, Pedomicrobium is a bacterium that belongs to the family Hyphomicrobiaceae, within the order of Rhizobiales under the class of alphaproteobacteria, in the phylum Proteobacteria (Garrity et al., 2001). There are twenty genera belonging to the Hyphomicrobiaceae family (Williams et al., 1990), of which Pedomicrobium is most closely related to Hyphomicrobium and Filomicrobium (Stahl et al., 1992).
The genus Pedomicrobium consists of three species, with Mn oxidizing and accumulating species represented by Pedomicrobium manganicum and Pedomicrobium americanum, whilst the species Pedomicrobium ferrugineum oxidizes iron but not Mn (Cox and Sly, 1997).

Is there bacteria on bacteria?
There are no bacteria on other bacteria. Some bacteria do attack other bacteria by piercing their cell wall and injecting proteins.Viruses can attack bacteria. They are called bacteriophages.
What are some hypothesis that deal with bacteria?
How does bacteria form? How can bacteria affect you? Can bacteria hurt a person? Is bacteria a good thing or a bad thing?
What do bacteria produce?
"Bacteria producing bacteria" - this is not a specific type of bacteria, as you might say a dog is a specific type of animal. All bacteria reproduce, and form new bacteria through a process usually called binary fission. In this way, each bacteria produces more new bacteria. It is not a trait of one species of bacteria.

Does bacteria cell contain another bacteria?
No, bacteria can not endocytosise another bacteria. bacteria contains cell wall, DNA called nucleoid and cytoplasm. Bacteria can make its own proteins by its ribosomes..No, they do not. They are not large enough for more bacteria inside.
