A review is presented of the nutritional requirements and physiology of actinomycetes, with special emphasis on: (a) selective isolation of unusual forms; (b) colonial morphogenesis and induction of sporulation; (c) biosynthesis of secondary metabolites of value, with particular reference to antibiotics and industrial enzymes. The future potential of actinomycetes as major contributors of useful bioactive metabolites is also indicated.
本文综述了放线菌的营养需求和生理学特性，特别强调了：（a）特殊形态放线菌的选择性分离；（b）菌落形态发生和孢子诱导；（c）有价值的次生代谢产物的生物合成，特别提到了抗生素和工业酶。本文还指出了放线菌作为有价值生物活性代谢物的主要贡献者的未来潜力。
