Abstract:
      Dilution plate method was employed to study the effects of adding CaCl2 into Gause's No.1 medium on the isolation of actinomycetes from calcareous soil. The result showed that: (1) The total quantity of the actinomycetes isolated from calcareous soil in arid areas could be affected by CaCl2. The total quantity of the actinomycetes was increased from 23.9% to 47.0% mostly. The difference between treatments and the control was significant at 5% level. The effect on the total quantity of the streptomycete was different from that of actinomycetes. The increase range was from 17.5% to 123.3%, while the decrease range was from 18.0% to 42.5% compared with the control. But the decrease wasn't significant at 5% level (P>0.05). (2) Adding CaCl2 into Gause's No.1 medium increased the quantity of broad-spectrum with strong antimicrobial antinomycetes.
