Actinomycetes are the most fruitful source ofmicroorganisms for all types of bioactive secondary metabolites, including agroactive-antibiotic molecules that are best recognized and most valuable for their role in agriculture and industries. In agriculture, actinomycetes are used as biocontrol agents against some pests and pathogenic organisms as well as plant growth-promoting (PGP) agents for crops. Use of different molecular methods, e.g., metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, genetic fingerprinting, proteogenomics, and metaproteomics, are more significant for classifying and discovering the immense diversity in microbial population and for understanding their interactions with other abiotic and biotic environmental elements. The opportunity of accessing inexpensive sequencing techniques has led to the assemblies of copious genomic data for actinomycetes, such as Streptomyces and related species, with the goal of discovering novel bioactive metabolic and their utility as PGP; however, the use of actinomycetes in agriculture using genomic approaches is in its initial stages. date: 2016 date_type: published publisher: Springer place_of_pub: Singapore pagerange: 249-262 pages: 298 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-981-10-0705-7 book_title: Plant Growth Promoting Actinobacteria: A New Avenue for Enhancing the Productivity and Soil Fertility of Grain Legumes editors_name: Gopalakrishnan, S editors_name: Arumugam, S editors_name: Vijayabharathi, R related_url_url: https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&q=Use+of+Genomic+Approaches+in+Understanding+the+Role+of+Actinomycetes+as+PGP+in+Grain+Legumes&btnG= related_url_type: pub citation: Sharma, M and Tarafdar, A and Ghosh, R (2016) Use of Genomic Approaches in Understanding the Role of Actinomycetes as PGP in Grain Legumes.
