Actinomycete strain SA198, isolated from a Saharan soil sample of Algeria, exhibited antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and phytopathogenic and toxinogenic fungi. The morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the strain were consistent with those of the genus Saccharothrix. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain SA198 showed a similarity...

Bloom’s Taxonomy has been utilized in many fields of studies. It has also been used in computer science education but research on the application of Bloom’s Taxonomy into software engineering curricula has not been done much. This paper outlines software engineering assessment using Bloom’s Taxonomy. Sample questions are given and categorized according to the relevant Bloom’s Taxonomy levels. T...

The taxonomy of Chamaedrilusglandulosus (Michaelsen, 1888) s. l., most commonly known previously as Cognettiaglandulosa, is revised. A recent molecular systematic study has shown that this taxon harbours two cryptic, but genetically well separated lineages, each warranting species status. In this study these two lineages are scrutinized morphologically, on the basis of Michaelsen's type materia...

An alkaliphilic actinomycete strain, designated YIM 80379T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the eastern desert of Egypt and subjected to polyphasic taxonomy. The strain produced substrate and aerial mycelia on different media, with an optimum pH for growth of 9.5-10 and scarce or no growth at pH 7. Strain YIM 80379T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, no diagnostic sugars, type P...

The genus Fusarium includes many pathogenic species causing a wide range of plant diseases that lead to high economic losses. In this review, we describe how the taxonomy has changed with development microbiological methods. We specify ecological traits and methods its identification in soils, particularly detection phytopathogenic representatives mycotoxins produced by them. negative effects s...
