Autotrophic potential in mesophilic heterotrophic bacterial isolates from Sino-Pacific marine sediments
(Springer and Chinese Society of Oceanography, 2017)Microbial carbon fixation is a paramount process in the ocean especially below the photic zone both in water and sedimentary ecosystems. Autotrophic microbes that fix carbon dioxide are renowned. However, the question ... -
Bleaching and recovery patterns of corals in Palk Bay, India: An indication of bleaching resilient reef
(Elsevier, 2016)Frequency and severity of coral bleaching events increased in recent years affecting the recovery and resilience of corals. In this study, influence of bleaching and recovery patterns of corals on the resilience potential ... -
Diversity and bioactive potentials of culturable heterotrophic bacteria from the surficial sediments of the Arabian Sea
(Springer, 2016)Marine sediments accommodate plethora of diverse microorganisms with varying ecological functions. In the present study, we isolated bacteria from surficial sediments of south east Arabian Sea (AS) and evaluated their ... -
Elucidation of the tidal influence on bacterial populations in a monsoon influenced estuary through simultaneous observations
(Springer, 2017)The influence of tides on bacterial populations in a monsoon influenced tropical estuary was assessed through fine resolution sampling (1 to 3 h) during spring and neap tides from mouth to the freshwater end at four stations ... -
Fungal phylogenetic diversity in estuarine sediments of Gautami Godavari River, Andhra Pradesh, India
(2016)Mangroves are a unique ecosystem that experiences fluctuations in salinity which is influenced by terrestrial and marine environment, tidal waves and wind velocity. The aforesaid factors provide a suitable environment for ... -
Microbial community structure of surface sediments from a tropical estuarine environment using next generation sequencing
(Elsevier, 2017)Microbial community structure was analyzed from tropical monsoon influenced Mandovi-Zuari (Ma-Zu) estuarine sediment by means of Next Gen Sequencing (NGS) approach using Ion Torrent PGM™. The sequencing generated 80,282 ... -
Pathogenic multiple antimicrobial resistant Escherichia coli serotypes in recreational waters of Mumbai, India: A potential public health risk
(Springer, 2017)Globally, coastal waters have emerged into a pool of antibiotic resistance genes and multiple antibiotic resistant microorganisms, and pathogenicity of these resistant microorganisms in terms of serotypes and virulence ...
