The Northern Indian Ocean contains OMZs in the Arabian Sea (AS-OMZ) and the Bay of ... -
Editorial: Benthic Biodiversity of the Indian Ocean
Saraswat, R.; Nanajkar, M.; Damare, S.R.; Khare, N.; Lei, Y. (Frontiers, 2022)Benthic organisms are an important component of the marine biodiversity. Although the benthic organisms constitute only a fraction of the total marine biomass, their contribution to the remineralization and thus biogeochemical ... -

Folin-Ciocalteu assay as a rapid colourimetric screening method for evaluating PAH degradation abilities of heterotrophic bacteria
Bhatawadekar, V.C.; Damare, S.R.; Garg, A. (Springer, 2023)Bioremediation using microbes is an eco-friendly approach being explored for reclaiming PAH-contaminated areas. However, isolation and screening of potential bacteria to degrade PAHs are very laborious and cumbersome. To ... -
Fungi and macroaggregation in deep-sea sediments
Damare, S.R.; Raghukumar, C. (Springer, 2008)Whereas fungi in terrestrial soils have been well studied, little is known of them in deep-sea sediments. Recent studies have demonstrated the presence of fungal hyphae in such sediments but in low abundance. We present ... -
Fungi in deep-sea sediments of the Central Indian Basin
Damare, S.R.; Raghukumar, C.; Raghukumar, S. (Elsevier, 2006)Although a great amount of information is available on bacteria inhabiting deep-sea sediments, the occurrence of fungi in this environment has been poorly studied and documented. We report here the occurrence of fungi in ... -
