Abstract:
Streptomyces sp. strain A2-16 was recently isolated from potato root zone soil, and it could inhibit the hyphal growth of Phytophthora infestans. The A2-16 genome consisted of one chromosome of 9,765,518 bp and one plasmid of 30,948 bp with GC contents of 70.88% and 68.39%, respectively. A total of 8,518 predicted coding genes, 3 ncRNA,73 tRNA,18 rRNA genes, and 28 secondary metabolite biosynthesis gene clusters were identified. The products of the gene clusters included bioactive polyketides, terpenes, and siderophores, which might contribute to host plants against disease. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) value (82.88-91.41%) among the genome of A2-16 and other Streptomyces species suggested it might not belong to any previously sequenced species in the Streptomyces genus.
