Complete genome sequences of Streptomyces spp. isolated from disease-suppressive soils.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Bacteria within the genus Streptomyces remain a major source of new natural product discovery and as soil inoculants in agriculture where they promote plant growth and protect from disease. Recently, Streptomyces spp. have been implicated as important members of naturally disease-suppressive soils. To shine more light on the ecology and evolution of disease-suppressive microbial communities, we have sequenced the genome of three Streptomyces strains isolated from disease-suppressive soils and compared them to previously sequenced isolates. Strains selected for sequencing had previously showed strong phenotypes in competition or signaling assays.

Results

Here we present the de novo sequencing of three strains of the genus Streptomyces isolated from disease-suppress
