They produce over two-thirds of the clinically useful antibiotics of natural origin (e.g., neomycin, cypemycin, grisemycin, bottromycins and chloramphenicol). The now uncommonly used streptomycin takes its name directly from Streptomyces.treptomyces is the largest antibiotic-producing genus, producing antibacterial, antifungal, and antiparasitic drugs, and also a wide range of other bioactive compounds, such as immunosuppressants.
Streptomyces scabies or Streptomyces scabiei is a streptomycete bacterium species found in soils around the world.Unlike most of the 500 or so Streptomyces species it is a plant pathogen causing corky lesions to form on tuber and root crops as well as decreasing the growth of seedlings.n 1914 H. T. Gussow renamed the species Actinomyces scabies, noting that Oospora was an incorrect classification since the disease was not caused by a fungus. The Streptomyces genus was first proposed by Waksman and Henrici in 1943, meaning 'pliant or bent fungus'.
