Bacterial diversity in relatively pristine and anthropogenically-influenced mangrove ecosystems (Goa, India)
(Sociedade Brasileira de Microbiologia, 2014)To appreciate differences in benthic bacterial community composition at the relatively pristine Tuvem and the anthropogenically-influenced Divar mangrove ecosystems in Goa, India, parallel tag sequencing of the V6 region ... -
Deep-sea nematode assemblages from a commercially important polymetallic nodule area in the Central Indian Ocean Basin
(Taylor & Francis, 2014)The Central Indian Ocean Basin (CIOB) is an important area for prospective mining for polymetallic nodules. However, little is known about the biodiversity or community structure of abyssal benthic assemblages in the area. ... -
Diversity and activity of methanotrophic related bacteria in subsurface sediments of the Krishna-Godavari Basin, India
(Current Science Association, 2016)The present study assesses the distribution, diversity and activity of aerobic methanotrophic related bacteria (MRB) dwelling in Krishna-Godavari (KG) basin, India. The counts of MRB ranged from non-detectable(ND) to 8.6 ... -
Kocuria indica sp nov., isolated from sediment sample
(IUMS, 2014)A actinobacterial strain isolated from a sediment sample from Chorao Island, in Goa province India, and subjected to a taxonomic investigation. The isolate, designated NIO-1021T, was a Gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile ... -
PCR detection of ansA from marine bacteria and its sequence characteristics from Bacillus tequilensis NIOS4
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co., 2014)As many as 71 marine bacterial DNA extracts were PCR screened for L-asparaginase (ansA), a key gene in anti-cancer molecular-searches. Over 62% (44) of them were positive for ansA gene. The positive cultures were from ... -
Phaeobacterium nitratireducens gen. nov., sp. nov., a phototrophic gammaproteobacterium isolated from a mangrove forest sediment sample
(International Union of Microbiological Societies, 2015)A novel brown-coloured, Gram-negative-staining, rod-shaped, motile, phototrophic, purple sulfur bacterium, designated strain AK40<sup>T</sup> , was isolated in pure culture from a sediment sample collected from Coringa ... -
Phosphate solubilizing bacteria: Comparison between coastal and deep sea sediments
(Centre for Ocean and Environmental Studies, New Delhi, 2012)Phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) play a key role in the phosphate cycle by enzymaticaly hydrolyzing a wide variety of organic phosphorus compounds and solubilizing various major insoluble forms of bound phosphorus. ...
