| Article Name : | | | ANTIFUNGAL AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF STREPTOMYCES ISOLATED FROM SOIL UNDER CULTIVATION OF CURCUMA LONGA L. | | Author Name : | | | Kamble A. P. , Kulkarni S.

They are filamentous structure, strict a erobes, lack cross wall. Streptomyces are widely distributed in a variety of natural and man made environments. The present research carried out to search antimicrobial activity produced by Streptomyces against different pathogens. Total three rhizospheric soil samples under cultivation Curcuma longa L. were collected from the villages around Barshi Dist- Solapur. Five isolates wereidentified as Streptomyces with the help of MICRO-IS software. Total five Streptomyces isolates were tested for their antimicrobial activity with the help of primary screening and agar overlay technique against Bacillus megaterium, Klebsiella pneoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi,Aspergillus niger, Saccharomyces cerevisae, Candida albicans and Penicillium chrysogenum.Streptomyces roseus showed broad spectrum antimicrobial activity against all tested pathogens except C. albicans. Streptomyces filipinensis showed broad spectrum antimicrobial activity against testedpa thogens except Aspergillus niger. Antimicrobial substance produced from both of hese Streptomycetes will be used to prevent human and plant bacterial and fungal diseases caused by thesetested pathogens to some extent. | | Keywords : | | |
