| Abstract: | Extreme environments, primeval forest, sea sediments and plants in China yielded members of a new suborder, Jiangellineae,
a new family Sinobacteraceae, and 23 new genera of actinomycetes and other bacteria. Three suggestions were made for further
discoveries of new actinomycetes. First, natural habitats such as old growth forests, and extreme environments, should be
given sampling priority; second, culturing procedures need to be constantly improved to mimic natural habitats; third, less
than 98.5% similarity of 16S rRNA sequence to that of a known species could be used as an indicator of a new species. |
