Rhizobiales is an order of alpha proteobacteria. They are gram-negative.

The rhizobia, which fix nitrogen and are symbiotic with plant roots, appear in several different families here. The Bradyrhizobiaceae, Hyphomicrobiaceae, Phyllobacteriaceae, and Rhizobiaceae are the four families that contain at least six genera of nitrogen-fixing, legume nodulating microsymbiotic bacteria. Examples are the genera Bradyrhizobium and Rhizobium. Species of Methylocystaceae are methanotroph, they use methyl alcohol (CH3OH) or methane (CH4) as the sole energy and carbon source. Other important genera are Bartonella (pathogen) and Agrobacterium (genetic engineering).
