Chapter synopsis:

The improved detection methods have led to a better understanding of the diversity and ecological functions of Actinobacteria. This chapter aims to provide a comprehensive review of recent findings on soil Actinobacteria, with a focus on their classification, genetics/characteristics, what we know and don’t know about the diversity and ecological functions, factors affecting distribution/abundance in soil, interactions within soil microbiomes, implications for optimizing their contribution to soil health, and where next for research.
