Popis: The search for novel antimicrobial compounds from the environment has been gaining momentum with the increase in resistance of pathogens. In the present study, the antimicrobial potential of 11 local isolates of Actinobacteria which were isolated from rhizosphere soils of the three local endemic plants in Turkey was evaluated against different pathogenic bacteria and Candida albicans. Antimicrobial activity was investigated by the disk diffusion agar method using the organic extracts obtained from the isolates grown in the modified Bennett's medium and Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB). Eight isolates were revealed to show remarkable antimicrobial activity against to pathogens. Study of the production of bioactive metabolites in two different culture media indicated that the higher antimicrobial activity was observed in modified Bennett's medium when compared to TSB. Also, partial 16S rDNA sequence analyses revealed that 10 of these local isolates belong to member of Streptomyces and one of them to member Promicromonospora genera.
