RESUMEN
The objective of the present study was to investigate the characteristics of Streptomyces in some Saudia Arabia soil as well as their biological, biochemical and anti-microbial activities. A total of 129 strains of Streptomyces were isolated from different samples of soil. Cultural and morphological characters showed the dominance of grey aerial myceliumn species; 31% of the isolates have antimicrobial activity, All of these isolates decompose starch, coagulate the milk and most of them had about 70% cellulytic activity, whereas gelatin liquefying activity was about 77.5 5 and 52.5% produced melanin pigments. This means that the isolated Stretomyces produced many enzymes
