| Research Abstract |
Four germicidins were isolated from Streptomyces coelicolor. Their germination inhibitory activity and contents in spores revealed that germicidins function as self-germination inhibitors. Reexamination in S. viridochromogenes indicated that the major self-germination inhibitor was found to be an EtOAc-soluble neutral substance. The similar inhibitor was also produced by S.griseus.
