Abstract

The soil sample was collected from Manora. After analysing the physic-chemical parameters of the collected marine soil sample, ten actinomycetes species including Actinobispora yunnanensis, Streptomyces albus, Micromonospora echinospora, Saccharopolyspora hirsute, Streptomycetes cyaneus, Actinomadura citrea, Saccharomonospora viridis, Thermomonospora mesophila, Streptoverticillium album Microtetrospora fastidiosa were isolated and they were screened for phosphate solubilization using Pikovskaya's agar medium and the Actinobispora yunnanensis was found to be dominant in phosphate solubilization. Then the DNA of the Actinobispora yunnanensis was isolated, amplified and its 16S rDNA was sequenced and its secondary structure was also predicted. The phylogenetic analysis of the Actinobispora yunnanensis was also carried out.
