Variovorax is a Gram-negative and motile genus of bacteria from the family Comamonadaceae. It belongs to the class called Betaproteobacteria.[1][2][3] It is an aerobic bacteria and most of its species is found in soil and freshwater.[4] The demographic distribution of this species is primarily in Europe, Asia and the Americas, as well as the polar regions.[5] Its designated species is Variovorax paradoxus which arose from the species Alcaligenes paradoxus being grouped under the Variovorax genus.[6] Variovorax paradoxus constitutes to the methylotrophic microbiota of the human mouth.[7]
