An actinomycetous culture designated as LIA-0721 was isolated from a soil sample. It was close to Act. fulvoviolaceus by its morphologo-cultural features and differed from it in production of melanoid pigments and the spectrum of carbohydrate assimilation. This justified its classification as Act. fulvoviolaceus var. achromogenes var. nov. The culture produced new aromatic heptaens, i. e. fulvomycins A, B and C. Their physico- chemical and biological characteristics are presented.

The four overlapping cosmids from the rubradirin producer, Streptomyces achromogenes var rubradiris NRRL 3061, have 58 ORFs within a 105.6 kb fragment. These ORFs harbored essential genes responsible for the formation and attachment of four distinct moieties, along with the genes associated with regulatory, resistance, and transport functions.

ORF's for rubN6 and rubN4 have been annotated as thymidine diphosphate glucose 4-ketoreductase and thymidine diphosphate glucose 3-aminotransferase by sequence analysis of the rubradirin biosynthetic gene cluster cloned from Streptomyces achromogenes var. rubradiris NRRL 3061. Both ORFs were heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli as His-tagged fusion proteins.

The root-colonizing actinomycete complexes of genotypically different barley plants grown in soddy podzolic soil were found to contain streptomycetes of the sections Cinereus (series Chromogenes, Achromogenes, and Aureus) and Roseus (series Fradiae), dominant being streptomycetes of the section Cinereus ser. Chromogenes. The abundance and diversity of soil streptomycetes in the barley rhizoplane increased in the order: var.

An open reading frame, rub52, has been identified as a gene encoding thymidine diphospho-glucose 2,3-dehydratase by sequence analysis of the rubradirin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces achromogenes var. nibradiris NRRL3061. The gene codes for a protein consisting of 458 amino acids with calculated molecular mass of 50862 Da.
