Streptomyces Diversity Maps Reveal Distinct High-Specificity Biogeographical and Environmental Patterns Compared to the Overall Bacterial Diversity.

ABSTRACT: Despite their enormous impact on the environment and humans, the distribution and variety of the biggest natural secondary metabolite producers, the genus Streptomyces, have not been adequately investigated. We developed representative maps from public EMP 16S rRNA amplicon sequences microbiomics data. Streptomyces ASVs were extracted from the EMP overall bacterial community, demonstrating Streptomyces diversity and identifying crucial diversity patterns. Our findings revealed that while the EMP primarily distinguished bacterial communities as host-associated or free-living (EMPO level 1), the Streptomyces community showed no significant difference but exhibited distinctions between categories in EMPO level 2 (animal, plant, non-saline, and saline).
