'''''Rhodococcus''''' é un xénero de [[bacterias]] [[Gram positiva]]s aeróbicas, non esporulantes, non motís moi relacionadas coas [[micobacteria]]s e as [[Cirynebacterium|corinebacteria]]s.<ref name=Alice>{{cite journal | author = van der Geize R., and L.

O [[xenoma]] foi secuenciado en 2006 e ten 9,7 megapares de bases e un [[contido G/C]] de 67%.<ref name = Betty />
As cepas de ''Rhodococcus'' son applicably important owing to their ability to catabolize a wide range of compounds and produce bioactive steroids, [[acrylamide]], and [[acrylic acid]], and their involvement in fossil fuel biodesulfurization.<ref name=Betty>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1073/pnas.0607048103 | author = McLeod MP, Warren RL, Hsiao WW, Araki N, Myhre M, Fernandes C, Miyazawa D, Wong W, Lillquist AL, Wang D, Dosanjh M, Hara H, Petrescu A, Morin RD, Yang G, Stott JM, Schein JE, Shin H, Smailus D, Siddiqui AS, Marra MA, Jones SJ, Holt R, Brinkman FS, Miyauchi K, Fukuda M, Davies JE, Mohn WW, Eltis LD | title = The complete genome of Rhodococcus sp.

However, as it stands now, ''Rhodococcus'' is not well characterized.<ref name = Betty />
