16S rRNA and hydrazine gene-based profiling of the Candidatus Scalindua community from the Arabian Sea hypoxic sediments
(Current Science Association, IAS, 2021)
Anammox bacterial diversity and abundance were studied from the organic-rich hypoxic sediments of the Arabian Sea utilizing the partial 16S rRNA, and hydrazine synthase, hzsA and hydrazine oxidoreductase, hzo genes. Among ...
Antioxidant and Antiglycemic Properties of Macroalgae, an Underutilized Blue Economy Bioresource in India
(Springer, 2021)
Macroalgae are marine bioresources with a myriad of bioactive potential to treat various chronic diseases such as cancer, obesity, diabetes and coronary heart diseases. Though there is a vast diversity of macroalgal species ...
Bacterial dynamics along the west coast of India during the non-monsoon and monsoon season
(Elsevier, 2022)
The West Coast of India (WCI) is influenced largely by semi-annual changes in the wind pattern and monsoonal currents.This is reported to cause upwelling which increases the phytoplankton growth in this region during the ...
Elucidation of the antioxidant potential of marine macroalgal biomolecules for healthcare applications: Current status and future prospects
(Elsevier, 2023)
Macroalgae are a group of primitive marine algae that are widely distributed along rocky shores in intertidal to subtidal zones. Based on their pigment composition, they are classified into three broad categories: Rhodophyta, ...
Adaptations of fungi and fungal-like organisms for growth under reduced dissolved oxygen concentrations
(CRC Press, 2017)
Our knowledge of the ecological roles of fungi in oxygen-depleted environments has been limited because of the lack of techniques for observing, isolating, and growing these fungi, and as a result they were thought to have ...
Molecular characterization and phylogenetics of Indian polychaete fauna: scope for implementation in ecological monitoring
(2019)
DNA barcodes are increasingly applied to ascertain the taxonomic identification to improve the speed and accuracy of ecological monitoring programmes. The success of integrating molecular approach in routine surveys ...
Bacillussp. based nano-bio hybrids for efficient water remediation
(Elsevier, 2023)
Macroalgae are a diverse group of primary producers that offer indispensable ecosystem services towards bacterial colonization and proliferation in aquatic biomes. Macroalgae/bacteria interactions are complex in natural ...
Unraveling the role of bacterial communities in mangrove habitats under the urban influence, using a next-generation sequencing approach
(Elsevier, 2024)
Mangrove ecosystems are vital coastal habitats with rich biodiversity and play a significant role in carbon sequestration, these habitats are facing mounting threats from rapid urbanization. This study delves into assessing ...
Insights into the seasonal changes in the taxonomic and functional diversity of bacteria in the eastern Arabian Sea: Shotgun metagenomics approach
(Elsevier, 2024)
The eastern Arabian Sea (EAS) is known for its unique oceanographic features such as the seasonal monsoonal winds, upwelling of nutrient-rich waters and a significant increase in primary productivity during the monsoon ...
Characterization of the molecular differential responses in marine benthic macroinvertebrates exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(Springer, 2024)
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are organic chemicals that can induce oxidative stress, genotoxicity, immunotoxicity, endocrine disruption, and developmental toxicity and are carcinogenic. Marine benthic ...
