Abstract

Actinomycetes occur in a wide range of environments and many more actinomycetes remain to be detected in the natural environment. In isolation stages, selection of the environment as a source of useful isolates is important. Two hundred and eighteen strains were isolated on Bennet's agar and 346 strains were on humic acid-vitamin agar from five each paddy field, field, forest, grass land, riverside soil samples. These isolates were identified to the genus level based on morphological and physiological characteristics. Among them, 386 strains were Streptomyces, 49 strain were Nocardia, 35 strains were Microbispora and Micromonospora each, 15 strains were Nocardiopsis, 13 strains were Actinomadura, 10 strains were Streptosporangium, and the others were isolated rarely. According to soil type, Nocardia, Micromonospora, Microbispora and Streptosporangium were dominant in paddy field, Microbispora Nocardia, Nocardioides and Micromonospora were dominant in field, Nocardia, Micromonospora, Microbispora and Actinomadura were dominant in grass land, Nocardia, Micromonospora and Microbispora were dominant in forest, Nocardia, Microbispora and Micromonospora were dominant in riverside. Generally, Nocardia, Micromonospora, Microbispora and Actinomadura were isolated in all kinds of soils, Streptosporangium were paddy field, Dactylosporangium were forest, Nocardiopsis were field, forest and riverside.
