Isolation of source of the type strains associate with disease.

Sl no.	Nearest phylogenetic neighbor	Isolation source	Associated human disease	Reference

Out of 27 representative taxa are affiliated have eight representative genera in drinking water except for those affiliated with the genera Exiguobacterium, Delftia, Kocuria, and Lysinibacillus.
