Streptomyces, the most abundant and arguably the most important genus of actinomycetes,
is an important source of biologically active compounds such as antibiotics, and extracellular …

Synthetic fungicides are often able to effectively control plant diseases, but some fungicides
result in serious environmental and health problems. Therefore, there is growing interest in …

Soil microorganisms are key players in determining the plant growth and crop productivity
worldwide. Among different microorganisms, members of the genus Streptomyces are one of …

Streptomyces bacteria are ubiquitous in soil, conferring the characteristic earthy smell, and
they have an important ecological role in the turnover of organic material. More recently, a …

Streptomyces spp. constitute a major clade of the phylum Actinobacteria. These Gram-
positive, filamentous prokaryotes are ubiquitous in soils and marine sediments, and are …

Biological control using beneficial microbes is a promising strategy for managing plant
diseases in a wide range of crops. Many microbes displayed remarkable biocontrol efficacy …
