In this study, three isolates of Streptomyces isolated from Egyptian soil at Giza Governorate and belonging to red series were identified based on their cultural, morphological and physiological characters. According to the key proposed by Pridham and Tresner (1974), the experimental isolates ST55, ST71 and ST86 ap-peared to be related to S. lincolnensis, S. venezuelae and S. umbrinus, respectively. In addition, random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-polymerase chain reac-tion (PCR) was used to amplify the DNA genome of the three applied isolates and an identified strain to determine their fingerprints. This was carried out using 10-decamer oligonucleotides, i.e., OP-A02, OP-D01, OP-D02, OP-D05, OP-D06, OP-D07, OP-D08, OP-D11, OP-D18 and OP-D20. The PCR amplified products were detected by electrophoresing on 1.5% agarose gel and visualized by staining in eth-idium bromide and UV trasilluminator. Results showed that the same oligonucleo-tide flanking fragments differed from one isolate to another with different sizes. Monomorphic and polymorphic fragments were amplified confirming the molecular relationships as well as the genetic diversity between the four applied strains of Streptomyces. Based on the statistical analysis of RAPD-PCR polymorphisms a de-gree of similarities ranged from 33.9 to 59.2 % was found. Furthermore, frag-ment(s), whatever absent or present, were found to be unique molecular markers and could be used for characterization of some isolates. This result supported the idea for using the RAPD-PCR technique for classification of Streptomyces isolates.
