    Lineage: Bacteria[4204]; Proteobacteria[1741]; Gammaproteobacteria[772]; Enterobacteriales[161]; Enterobacteriaceae[161]; Escherichia[7]; Escherichia coli[1]
    Escherichia coli. This organism was named for its discoverer, Theodore Escherich, and is one of the premier model organisms used in the study of bacterial genetics, physiology, and biochemistry. This enteric organism is typically present in the lower intestine of humans, where it is the dominant facultative anaerobe present, but it is More...
