Stenotrophomonas is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria, comprising at least twenty-six species. The main reservoirs of Stenotrophomonas are soil and plants. Stenotrophomonas species range from common soil organisms (S. nitritireducens) to opportunistic human pathogens (S. maltophilia); the taxonomy of the genus is still somewhat unclear.
