The following is a list of Streptomyces species, organized alphabetically by species name. [1] Names that have not been validated according to the Bacteriological Code are enclosed in "quotes". As of June 2021 [update] , there are 679 valid species of Streptomyces and an additional 121 provisional species. [ 1 ]
Streptomyces is the largest genus of Actinomycetota, and the type genus of the family Streptomycetaceae. [3] Over 700 species of Streptomyces bacteria have been described. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] As with the other Actinomycetota, streptomycetes are gram-positive , and have very large genomes with high GC content .

Streptomyces isolates have yielded the majority of human, animal, and agricultural antibiotics, as well as a number of fundamental chemotherapy medicines.Streptomyces is the largest antibiotic-producing genus of Actinomycetota, producing chemotherapy, antibacterial, antifungal, antiparasitic drugs, and immunosuppressants.

Natamycin is produced as a secondary metabolite by some Streptomyces species: S. natalensis, S. lydicus, S. chattanoogensis and S. gilvosporeus. [4] Structurally, its core is a macrolide containing a polyene segment, with carboxylic acid and mycosamine groups attached.
Streptomyces griseus is a species of bacteria in the genus Streptomyces commonly found in soil. A few strains have been also reported from deep-sea sediments. It is a Gram-positive bacterium with high GC content .
The bacterium Streptomyces lydicus (Actinovate) is used as a biological control against M. panattonianum. [10] Recent research has shown that the fungus Trichoderma applied to soil or sprayed in a liquid filtrate onto leaves helps to prevent lettuce anthracnose and reduce symptoms when infection does occur.
