Abstract

Effect of humic and application at different growth stages of kinnow mandarin (citrus reticulata blanco) on the basis of physio-biochemical and reproductive responses

Highlights

  • Actinomycetes (Actinobacteria) have been paid a great attention owing to their production of various natural drugs and other bioactive metabolites including antibiotics, enzyme inhibitors and enzymes for a long time

  • In order to obtain much more unknown actinomycetes for discovery of new drug leads and other industry products, 1065 soil samples were collected from 8 areas in west of China. 8159 purified cultures of actinobacteria were isolated from these samples by using 27 media

  • It is showed that actinomycete communities in tropical rain forest of Xishuangbanna is the highest compared with all studied areas in this study, and that of secondary forest were relative monotonous

Summary

Introduction

Actinomycetes (Actinobacteria) have been paid a great attention owing to their production of various natural drugs and other bioactive metabolites including antibiotics, enzyme inhibitors and enzymes for a long time. Over 25000 bioactive secondary metabolites (including antibiotics) were published in the scientific and patent literature, and about a half of them were produced by actinomycetes. Actinomycete is still an important source for development of bioactive compounds (Goodfellow and Fiedler, 2010; Raja and Prabekarana, 2011; Tiwari and Gupta, 2012). The development of new drugs from actinomycetes and other microbes and plants is more and more difficult in the whole world due to too many known compounds and microbes. Novel microbial species should contain new gene cluster synthesizing new secondary metabolites, as long as getting new species is an important premise for obtaining new compounds. Many companies and laboratories focused on new actinomycete resources from new habitats, such as oceans, extreme environment, plants and animals, to develop new drugs
