A method for improving the production of Streptomyces polyketide compounds is provided. The method greatly improves the capability of the Streptomyces polyketide compounds by strengthening a triacylglycerol decomposition pathway in Streptomyces during the stationary phase. A method for switching the primary metabolism of Streptomyces to the secondary metabolism, Streptomyces producing polyketide compounds, and use thereof are also provided.
