Abstract This study investigated aerial mycelium formation in 12 isolates of rare thermophilic Actinobacteria from Indonesia on four different media (International Streptomyces Project ISP 1, ISP 2, ISP 3, and Bennett’s solidified with agar and gellan gum). The results from media solidified with agar showed that aerial mycelium formation

Designing and implementing an assay for the detection of rare and divergent NRPS and PKS clones in European, Antarctic and Cuban soils [PDF]
The ever increasing microbial resistome means there is an urgent need for new antibiotics. Metagenomics is an underexploited tool in the field of drug discovery. In this study we aimed to produce a new updated assay for the discovery of biosynthetic gene

Actinoalloteichus cyanogriseus: a broad spectrum bio-agent against mulberry root rot pathogens
Background In India, severe yield and economic losses in sericulture were reported due to mulberry root rot disease. Since the disease was caused by complex soil-borne pathogens with wide host range, an attempt was made to develop actinobacteria based ...

Studies that explore the diversity of microorganisms in unusual (extreme) environments have become more common. Our research aims to predict the diversity of bacteria that inhabit an extreme environment, a coal mine’s soil with pH of 2.93. Soil samples were collected from the soil at a depth of 12 meters from the surface, which is a clay layer adjacent
