Chemical analyses of wasp-associated streptomyces bacteria reveal a prolific potential for natural products discovery.

Identifying new sources for small molecule discovery is necessary to help mitigate the continuous emergence of antibiotic-resistance in pathogenic microbes. Recent studies indicate that one potentially rich source of novel natural products is Actinobacterial symbionts associated with social and soli...
