coccobacillus : ウィキペディア英語版 | coccobacillus
A coccobacillus (plural coccobacilli) is a type of bacterium with a shape intermediate between cocci (spherical bacteria) and bacilli (rod-shaped bacteria).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dorlands Medical Dictionary:coccobacillus )〕 Coccobacilli are therefore in essence very short rods which may be mistaken for cocci. ''Haemophilus influenzae'', ''Gardnerella vaginalis'', and ''Chlamydia trachomatis'' are coccobacilli. ''Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans'' is a Gram-negative coccobacillus prevalent in subgingival plaques. ''Acinetobacter'' strains may grow on solid media as coccobacilli. ''Bordetella pertussis'' is a Gram-negative coccobacillus responsible for causing whooping cough. ''Coxiella burnetti'' is also a coccobacillus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=persistent rickettsial disease )〕 Bacteria from the ''Brucella'' genus are medically important coccobacilli that cause brucellosis. ''Haemophilus ducreyi'', another medically important Gram-negative coccobacillus, is observed in sexually transmitted disease, chancroid, of Third World countries.〔 Schaetchter's Mechanisms of Microbial Disease 4th Edition.
