Abstract:Microbial degradation of organic matter is a vital part of carbon cycle in nature. Actinobacteria play an important role in the decomposition of cellulose rich organic matter (CROM). Streptomyces spp. are abundant in soil, produce various secondary metabolites and secrete extracellular enzymes. The aim of this research was to isolate and select Streptomyces strains with the best cellulose degradation abilities. Out of total 32 actinobacteria isolates, four Streptomyces strains (CA1, CA10, PA2 and PA7) were sub… Show more
