crescentus is just one bacteria belonging to an extremely diverse phylum known as Proteobacteria. Not only has the ctrA gene been found to be essential in C. crescentus, it has also been found quite necessary for viability in three other bacterium: Sinorhizobium meliloti, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, and Brucella abortus (Greene et al.,2012). In addition to the three bacterium previously stated, research has also supported that ctrA plays a critical role in the regulation of motility amongst Rhodobacter capsulatus, Rhodospirillum centenum, and Silicibacter sp. TM1040 (Greene et al.,2012). Also members of the genus Rhodobacter and of the phylum Proteobacteria, Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1. and Rhodobacter sphaeroides 17029 were observed in the lab for the presence of the ctrA gene, in addition to the bacteria Escherichia coli DH5α and Rhodopseudomonas palustris BisB5. With all four bacteria being members of Proteobacteria, they can either strongly support or disapprove of the hypotheses being
