Micromonospora is a genus of bacteria that are commonly found in soils, sediments, and in close contact with
the roots of different plants.[1] In 1923, they were named "ray fungi" on the basis of their shape (also known as morphology).[2] The genus is a source of chemicals that are used in medicine to treat bacterial infections.
Microbiology[change | change source]
Ecology[change | change source]
In the environment, they form networks called mycelium to enable them to break down and digest dead plant matter to gain energy. This process is called saprotrophy.
Morphology[change | change source]
Micromonospora are Gram-positive, spore-forming, and live in areas of the soil with access to air, as they are aerobic (use oxygen).
