1. Plant Interactions: Some bacteria within the Burkholderiaceae family are known for their interactions with plants, including both pathogenic and beneficial relationships. Burkholderia species, for example, can have diverse effects on plants, ranging from pathogenicity to plant growth promotion.

2. Environmental Presence: Members of Burkholderiaceae can be found in various environments, including soil and water. They play roles in nutrient cycling and have been studied for their adaptability to diverse ecological niches.

3. Pathogenicity in Humans: While many Burkholderiaceae species are associated with environmental and plant-related interactions, certain species within the Burkholderia genus can be pathogenic to humans. Burkholderia pseudomallei, for instance, is known to cause melioidosis, a potentially severe infectious disease in humans.

4. Cystic Fibrosis Infections: Some Burkholderia species, such as Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), have been associated with infections in individuals with cystic fibrosis. BCC infections can be challenging to treat and may lead to worsened respiratory symptoms.

5. Biotechnological Applications: Certain Burkholderiaceae bacteria have been studied for their potential biotechnological applications. Some produce secondary metabolites with antimicrobial properties or enzymes with industrial significance.

6. Environmental Adaptability: Burkholderiaceae bacteria are known for their adaptability to different environmental conditions, and this adaptability may contribute to their diverse ecological roles.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
