Actinomycetes Actinomycetes are filamentous bacteria. Their morphology resembles that of the filamentous fungi; however, the filaments of actinomycetes consist of procaryotic cells. Some actinomycetes resemble molds by forming externally carried asexual spores for reproduction. Filamentous, High G + C content, Gram-positive (63 – 78% GC)Actinomycetes Actinomycetes are filamentous bacteria.
