Taxonomy, Physiology, and Natural Products of Actinobacteria

TL;DR: Actinobacteria are Gram-positive bacteria with high G+C DNA content that constitute one of the largest bacterial phyla, and they are ubiquitously distributed in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Actinobacteria: Current research and perspectives for bioremediation of pesticides and heavy metals.

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of different bioremediation strategies using actinobacteria and how they contributed to the improvement of the already existing strategies is presented. And the importance of omic studies to elucidate mechanisms and regulations that bacteria use to cope with pollutant toxicity is discussed.
