Abstract

A total of 268 strains of Actinomycetes were isolated from soil and leaf-litter samples collected in Jambi (Sumatera) and Cibinong (West Java) using three selective isolation methods. All the isolates were identified by morphological characteristic and by analysis of 16S rDNA sequence. On the basis of their morphology and 16S rDNA sequence, 164 isolates were belonged to the Streptomyces Group and 104 isolates were belonged to the Rare-Actinomycetes (Non-Streptomyces) Group. Furthermore, 40% of isolates in Streptomyces Group and 62% of isolates in Non-Streptomyces Group are supposed to be new taxa. It is indicated the richness of Actinomycetes in these two area. The genus Streptomyces is the most abundant in soil samples, occupying 60-75% of all isolates; while the genus Actinoplanes is mainly found in leaf-litter samples (70%). The use of selective isolation media is important to elucidate the microbial diversity.

Abstract

A total of 137 strains of Actinomycetes were isolated from 14 soil samples collected in 3 part of Lombok Island, Indonesia using SDS-YE (SY) and Rehydration and Centrifugation (RC) isolation methods and Humic Acid Vitamin (HV) agar as isolation media. All the isolates were identified by morphological characteristic and by analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence. On the basis of their morphology and 16S rRNA gene sequence, 67% of isolates were belonged to the Streptomyces Group and 33% of isolates were belonged to the Rare-Actinomycetes (Non-Streptomyces) Group. Nine families and 15 genera were found from the samples. It is indicated the richness of actinomycetes in these area. The genus Streptomyces is the most abundant in all soil samples, occupying 67% of all isolates by using SY method; while the genus Actinoplanes is mainly found by using RC as isolation method. Two strains belong to the genus Virgisporangium and Catenulispora that showed taxonomic interest need further study for describing as ne species.
