(Springer, 2014)A Gram-negative, rod shaped, motile, aerobic bacterium, designated as strain AK49(T) was isolated from a water sample from a mangrove forest in Coringa village, Andhra Pradesh, India. Strain AK49(T) was observed to form ... -
Antibacterial phenolics from the mangrove Lumnitzera racemosa
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2010)Antimicrobial activity of the methanolic extract and fractions of Lumnitzera racemosa was evaluated against fungi, virus and pathogenic bacteria. Crude methanolic extract and n-butanol fraction were ineffective against ... -
Denitrification: An important pathway for nitrous oxide production in tropical mangrove sediments (Goa, India)
(American Society of Agronomy, 2010)Net nitrous oxide production and denitrification activity were measured in two mangrove ecosystems of Goa, India. The relatively pristine site Tuvem was compared to Divar, which is prone to high nutrient input. Stratified ... -
Elysia bangtawaensis Swennen (Nudibranch) from the mangrove habitat of Mandovi estuary, Goa (central west coast), India
(Current Science Association, 2009)Elysia bangtawaensis has been reported from India, contributing towards biodiversity. Ecological observations revealed its exclusive association to the mangrove swamp from the midreaches of the Mandovi estuary, Goa, India. ... -
Fungi living in diverse extreme habitats of the marine environment
(Mycological Society of India, 2014)The marine environment contains several habitats characterized by extreme living conditions. However, extremophilic marine fungi were neither well known, nor often studied. Many studies in recent years have shown that fungi ... -

Population structure and reproductive biology of Mesopodopsis orientalis (Crustacea: Mysida) in a tropical mangrove ecosystem in India
(Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2011)The population structure and biological aspects of the shallow water mysid Mesopodopsis orientalis were studied in the Versova mangrove, Mumbai, India. The monthly collections ranged from 0-2104 ind.m sup (-3)with an average ... -
Rhodovulum mangrovi sp. nov., a phototrophic alphaproteobacterium isolated from a mangrove forest sediment sample
(International Union of Microbiological Societies, 2014)A novel Gram-staining-negative, purple non-sulfur bacterium, strain AK41T, was isolated from a sediment sample collected from Coringa mangrove forest, Andhra Pradesh, India. A red–brownish-coloured culture was obtained on ... -
Studies on methanogenic consortia associated with mangrove sediments of Ennore.
(Triveni Enterprise, 2014)In this study, methanogenic consortia were isolated and characterized from eight different sediment samples of mangrove ecosystem located in Ennore, Chennai. Out of eight samples, two consortia (SpR6 and SSS8) were consistent ... -
Sulfide oxidizing activity as a survival strategy in mangrove clam Polymesoda erosa (Solander, 1786)
(Bionano Frontier, 2013)The clam Polymesoda erosa is a large dioceous bivalve mollusk found in the mangroves restricted in high tidal Avicennia sp. zone of the mangrove forest. The present study was aimed at understanding the occurrence of P. ...
