The
Chloroflexi
are a group of
bacteria
that produce energy through
photosynthesis
. They make up the bulk of the green non-
sulfur
bacteria, though some are classified separately as the
Thermomicrobia
. They are named for their green pigment, usually found in photosynthetic bodies called
chlorosomes
. Chloroflexi are typically filamentous, and can move about through
bacterial gliding
. They are facultatively
aerobic
, but do not produce oxygen during photosynthesis, and have a different method of carbon fixation than other photosynthetic bacteria.
Genetic trees
indicate that they had a separate origin.
