How are actinomycetes differ from fungi?
Actinomycetes are a phylum of bacteria. They include soil dwelling organisms and pathogens.
Which culture medium preparation is most commonly utilized in isolation of pure culture?
Solid media is used for the isolation of bacteria as pure culture. 'Agar' is most commonly used to prepare solid media.
What is Bait technique in isolation of culture media?
this is a method that allows further growth of fungal mycelia on your baits
What selective growth media is best suited for isolation of coliform bacteria?
MacConkey's agar is a selective growth media that is best suited for isolation of coliform bacteria. This bacterial is red and is gram negative. The agar plate inhibits the growth of gram positive organisms and allows gram negative organisms to grow.
Nitrogen is biochemically fixed within the soil by?
by specialized micro-organisms like bacteria, actinomycetes, and cyanobacteria.
How actinomycetes related to drought stress?
Actinomycetes are dominant in arid environments and prefer neutral to alkaline pH for their growth. Among actinomycetes most domianant genera is Streptomyces (~90%). The actinomycetes even though produce spores but are not heat resistant. These spores help in perpetuation of actinomycetes and few of the actinomycetes are known for secondary metabolite production and exopolysaccharides. Actinomycetes are known for production of siderophores, antibiotics, IAA, GA etc. They are found in the rhizosphere and few actinomycetes are endophytes tooo!!!. This traits help actinomycetes to survive in rhizopshre and hel in alleviating drought stress.
How are actinomycetes differ from fungi?
Actinomycetes are a phylum of bacteria. They include soil dwelling organisms and pathogens.
Are there actinomycetes in Antarctica?
Yes, there are several published reports of actinomycetes being isolated from Antarctica
What are the selective media for isolation of thermophiles?
thermus agar
What has the author Ann H Vajdic written?

Vajdic has written: 'The isolation and enumeration of actinomycetes from water samples' -- subject(s): Actinomycetes 'The enumeration of bacteriophages in water and sewage' -- subject(s): Bacteriophages 'Water quality changes during distribution' -- subject(s): Contamination, Disinfection and disinfectants, Distribution, Drinking water, Evaluation, Microbiology, Water
Are actinomycetes decomposers?
Yes, they are.
Which culture medium preparation is most commonly utilized in isolation of pure culture?
Solid media is used for the isolation of bacteria as pure culture. 'Agar' is most commonly used to prepare solid media.
What is enumeration media in microbiology?
media used for isolation and identification of unknown microorganism. this is enriched type of media. we can isolate microorganism from air , water and soil.
What eats actinomycetes?
other higher fungi
Are the two types of reporting isolation events observer-reported and media reporting?
False
What are the two types of reporting isolation events are observer-reported and media reporting?
FALSE
What is difference between bacteria fungi and actinomycetes?
Very simple...actinomycetes lies between bacteria and fungi. It was first considered to be fungi by looking the morphological features like hyphae, spore formation etc. But then when they looked into the DNA, the GC content of actinomycetes was less than that of fungi and was slightly more than that of bacteria. So actinomycetes were called as filamentous gram positive bacteria.
