Abstract
The actinomycete strain A 11 was antagonistic to plant pathogenic fungi Phytophthora capsid and Magnaporthe grisea. Based on the diaminopimelic acid (DAP) type and morphological characteristics examined by scanning electron microscopy, the strain A 11 was confirmed to belong to the genus Streptomyces. Based on Willcox probability and similarity level, the strain A 11 was numerically identified as Streptomyces flaveus using TAXON program of Ward and Goodfellow. Antibiotic production of S. flaveus strain A 11 was most favorable when cultured on glycerol yeast extract peptone (GYP) agar for 20 days at
