# Draft genomes of six Streptomyces species from a United States biogeography survey

## TL;DR

This paper presents the genome sequences of six new Streptomyces species found in U.S. soil, helping to study their ecological and chemical diversity.

## Contribution

The study provides whole genome sequences and predicted biosynthetic products of six novel Streptomyces species.

## Key findings

- Six novel Streptomyces species were identified from U.S. soil samples.
- Genome sequences and predicted biosynthetic products are reported for these strains.

## Abstract

Streptomyces bacteria play key ecological and functional roles in terrestrial ecosystems. We surveyed soil samples across the continental United States, identifying six novel Streptomyces species. Here, we report the whole genome sequences of these strains and their predicted biosynthetic products, providing additional information for studying biological and chemical diversity in this ubiquitous species.
