Diversity of Actinobacteria in Various Habitats

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Actinobacteria

Abstract

Actinobacteria are ubiquitous, diverse, and one of the biggest lineages in the domain Bacteria. Their existence has been documented in a variety of habitats, including terrestrial, aquatic, and extreme environments. Traditionally, culture-based method has been used to understand the actinobacterial diversity in various habitats, and based on this method many novel strains have been reported. Despite the fact that the culture-based approach has been widely used, the majority of microorganisms in this method were difficult to cultivate. Next-generation sequencing enables culture-free microbial diversity identification based on the molecular phylogeny of the small-subunit ribosomal RNA gene (16S rRNA gene). Actinobacterial diversity in diverse environments has been studied using both culture-dependent and independent methods. In this chapter, we will go through actinobacterial diversity in several ecological niches using both culture-dependent and culture-independent methods.
