The Influence of Streptomyces on Soil Microorganisms

Chemical substances called arginoketides, which are produced by bacteria of the genus Streptomyces, cause a variety of reactions in other microorganisms: Algae group together to form aggregates, fungi produce signaling molecules that they would not otherwise produce, and bacteria develop biofilms that cause other organisms to respond differently.
