''Methylobacterium'' is a genus of Hyphomicrobiales.Garrity, George M.; Brenner, Don J.; Krieg, Noel R.; Staley, James T. (eds.) (2005). Bergey's Manual of Systematic Bacteriology, Volume Two: The Proteobacteria, Part C: The Alpha-, Beta-, Delta-, and Epsilonproteobacteria. New York, New York: Springer. . As well as its normal habitats in soil and water, ''Methylobacterium'' has also been identified as a contaminant of DNA extraction kit reagents, which may lead to its erroneous appearance in microbiota or metagenomic datasets. In March 2021, a new species, named ''Methylobacterium ajmalii'', LPSN
Species ''Methylobacterium ajmalii'' Bijlani ''et al''. 2021 associated with three new strains, designated IF7SW-B2^T, IIF1SW-B5, and IIF4SW-B5, were reported to have been discovered, for the first time, on the International Space Station

Natural genetic transformation

Transformation (genetics)">Natural genetic transformation in bacteria is a process involving transfer of DNA from one cell to another through the intervening medium, and the integration of the donor sequence into the recipient genome by homologous recombination. ''

Methylobacterium organophilum ''Methylobacterium organophilum'' is a facultatively methylotrophic bacteria from the genus of Methylobacterium which was isolated from sediments from the Lake Mendota in Madison Madison may refer to: People * Madison (name), a given name ...

'' cells are able to undergo genetic transformation and become competent for DNA uptake near the end of the exponential growth phase.
