Bacterial response to contrasting sediment geochemistry in the central Indian Basin
(International Association of Sedimentologists, 2011)
In order to investigate whether geochemical, physiographic and lithological differences in two end-member sedimentary settings could evoke varied microbe-sediment interactions, two 25 cm long sediment cores from contrasting ...
Role of microbes in the ecology of marine environment
(Centre for Environmental Studies, 2008)
Microbes are mostly unicellular microscopic living entities falling under the domains Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya. They have multiple roles to play in the environment both for their own survival and towards maintaining ...
Ambient iron concentration regulates the sulfate reducing activity in the mangrove swamps of Diwar, Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2011)
In order to test the hypothesis that the ambient iron concentrations could regulate sulfate reducing activity (SRA) in mangrove areas, 10 cm cores were examined from test and reference sites. The test site at Diwar mangrove ...
Abundance and production of particle-associated bacteria and their role in a mangrove-dominated estuary
(Inter-Research, 2009)
A 1 yr study was carried out in the mangrove-dominated, tropical Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) to assess the contribution of particle-associated bacteria (PAB) to the system’s variability in terms of abundance and productivity. ...
Marine microbial ecology: Reminiscence of the status and some suggestions for the way forward
(CUSAT; India, 2012)
An attempt has been made to pick out a few aspects of the vast progress that the science of marine microbial ecology has made in the recent years and how we can move forward notwithstanding the challenges.
Chemosynthetic activity prevails in deep-sea sediments of the Central Indian Basin
(Springer, 2011)
It is hypothesized that in the deep-sea, under psychrophilic, barophilic and oligotrophic conditions, microbial community of Central Indian Basin (CIB) sediments could be chemosynthetic. In the dark, at near ambient ...
Anoxia over the western continental shelf of India: Bacterial indications of intrinsic nitrification feeding denitrification
(Elsevier, 2008)
Studies on the Arabian Sea coastal anoxia have been of immense interest, but despite its ecological significance there is sparse understanding of the microbes involved. Hence, observations were carried out off Goa (15 ...
Response of sedimentary nucleic acids to benthic disturbance in the Central Indian Basin
(Taylor and Francis, 2005)
Information on the response of nucleic acids (i.e., DNA and RNA) to simulated benthic disturbance was obtained from samples collected from eight sediment cores (0-10 cm) located in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). In general ...
Particle-associated bacterial dynamics in a tropical tidal plain (Zuari estuary, India)
(Inter Research, 2003)
The dynamics of particle-associated bacteria (PAB) in a tropical estuary, Zuari, in Goa on the west coast of India, was studied for a year from September 1997 to October 1998. Bacterial abundance, productivity and enzymatic ...
Water quality and bacteriology in an aquaculture facility equipped with a new aeration system
(Springer, 2010)
The HOBAS aeration system was tested to compare changes in environmental and bacteriological parameters in ponds growing Penaeus monodon during a single production cycle. The stocking density in the aerated pond was doubled ...
