Elizabeth Wellington is renowned for her work on the microbiomes in our environment, including soil, plants, and rivers. She is also known for her efforts to promote this field by sharing research methods and running workshops. To honour her great contributions to microbiomes and environmental microbiology, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomonospora wellingtoniae (DSM 45055) after her.

Johanna Döbereiner (1924-2000) was a world-renowned microbiologist, agronomist and pioneer in soil biology. She played an important role in Brazilian soybean production by promoting legumes that relied solely on biological nitrogen fixation. To honour her significant contributions in the field of plant-microbe interaction, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces doebereineriae (DSM 41640) after her.

During her work at Rutgers University microbiologist Elizabeth Bugie (1920-2001) was involved in the discovery of streptomycin, the first antibiotic effective against tuberculosis. While her boss received the Nobel Prize for this discovery, she wasn’t mentioned. Honouring her work on the discovery and evaluation of antibiotics, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces bugieae (DSM 41528) after her.

Alice Catherine Evans (1881-1975) worked as a microbiologist, studying the bacteriology of milk and cheese. Thanks to her research, the cause of Brucellosis could be traced back to the consumption of raw milk. To honour Alice Evans for her work, which resulted in the pasteurisation of milk, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces evansiae (DSM 41979) after her.

Fanny Hesse (1850-1934) worked unpaid for her husband Walter Hesse in Robert Koch's laboratory. Koch was desperate to find a suitable medium for growing bacterial cultures. Fanny Hesse came up with the idea of using agar, which proved to be an ideal gelling agent. To honour her for introducing agar and revolutionising microbiology, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces hesseae (DSM 40473) after her.

Dr. Rebecca Lancefield (1895 – 1981) studied streptococcal bacteria. Her research laid the foundations for understanding how diseases like strep throat. She was the first woman to became president of the American Association of Immunologists. To honour her significant contributions to bacteriology, DSMZ researchers named the strain Streptomyces lancefieldiae (DSM 40712) after her.
