从云南地区土壤中分离到一株具有除莠活性的放线菌（Actinomycetes），对其产生的活性物质进行了分离、纯化及分析。从该菌株的发酵液中获得了有除莠活性的黄色结晶，薄板层析的结果表明，该结晶为多组分混和物，且每一组分均具有除莠活性。通过红外分析对其组分作了初步鉴定。同时对该菌株进行了形态、化学及系统发育学研究，根据16S rDNA 全序列构建了系统发育树，结果表明此菌株应属于链霉菌属（Streptomyces），同时具有耐低温和耐盐的特性。

通过对河北、云南、青藏高原不同地区的粘细菌进行生态多样性研究，从42 个样品中分离得到了10个属（A rchangium、Myxococcus、Cystobacter、Corallococcus、Melittangium、Sorangium、Polyangium、Chondromyces、Angiococcus、Stigmatella） 的150余株粘细菌，其中包括一些尚未有描述的菌株，有待鉴定。根据这些菌株的子实体结构、菌落形态、营养细胞、粘孢子形态等特征将它们初步鉴定到属。对这些特有自然生态环境的粘细菌按不同地点、植被、营养基质进行统计比较，结果表明粘细菌生态分布极为广泛，具有丰富的生态多样性。以上结果为粘细菌生物资源的有效开发利用奠定了基础。

用16SrRNA部分序列对Williams 数值分类系统所包含的链霉菌属种或种群进行系统进化分析。以包含16SrRNA 基因V-2高变区在内的120bp长核苷酸序列所作的系统进化树表明：这些链霉菌可分为34个簇，其中大簇5个（包括27～85株菌株）；中等大小簇3个（包括9～12株菌）；小簇8个（包括2～6株菌）；单成员簇19个。结果同时表明，Williams 数值分类系统中根据形态、生理、生化特征进行归类而得的种或种群内存在较大异质性。

14 strains of Actinomycetes were isolated from soil samples collected in Yunnan, China Experiments showed that they had activity of herbicide. In this paper, the morphological and chemotaxonomic characters of these strains were studied and they were identified as three genera of Actinomycetales respecitively, such as Streptomyces. Nficromonospora and Nocardia.

A strain of Streptosporangium with an unusual phospholipid pattern was isolated from Yunnan Province, a region in China. The isolate, designated CY-7113T, was identified by morphological and physiological properties, cell chemistry, genomic DNA GMC content, DNA–DNA hybridization and phylogenetic analysis. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, DNA–DNA hybridization, phenotypic characteristics and its unusual phospholipid pattern, it was concluded that strain CY-7113T belongs to a novel Streptosporangium species, for which the name Streptosporangium subroseum sp. nov. is proposed. Strain CY-7113T (=CCTCC 97008T=CRC 16302T) is the type strain.
