Massarina armatispora sp. nov., a new intertidal ascomycete from mangroves
(Walter de Gruyter, Berlin, 1992)Massarina armatispora sp. nov. is described from dead intertidal mangrove wood collected in India and Hong Kong. The new taxon is compared with other M. species, and its placement in the genus Massarina is discussed -
Primary productivity of the Arabian Sea
(Wiley Eastern, New Delhi, 1992)Reversal of surface circulation during the monsoons, patchy nutrient distributions and high light intensity drive phytoplankton production processes in the tropical Arabian Sea. Available data are discussed in the light ... -
Biochemical composition and caloric potential of zooplankton from Bay of Bengal
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)Proximate composition and variations in protein, lipid, carbohydrate, ash and organic carbon in zooplankton from 42 stations in the Bay of Bengal are reported. Average percentages of moisture, protein, lipid, carbohydrate, ... -

Ecology and biology of luminous bacteria in the Arabian Sea
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)Extensive studies on occurrence, distribution and species composition of luminous bacteria in the Arabian Sea were carried out from various habitats. Luminous bacterial population was by far the highest in the environs of ... -
Microdistribution of zooplankton in the neustonic realm of the eastern Arabian Sea during southwest monsoon
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)During the southwest monsoon season of 1987, the zooplankton distributions in the neustonic realm (upper 50 cm) of the eastern Arabian Sea were studied and compared with those in the water column. The upper microlayer ... -
Production of L-Asparaginase by the marine luminous bacteria
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)Fortythree strains of luminous bacteria, belonging to 4 species, (Vibrio harveyi, V. fischeri, Photobacterium leiognathi and P. phosphoreum) isolated from different marine samples, were examined for the production of ... -
Benthic fauna around Mauritius island, southwest Indian Ocean
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)Distribution of benthic fauna in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Mauritius was studied during September-October 1987. Mean faunal density (macro+meio) and dry weight biomass was 10848 no.m/2 and 228.8 mg.m/2, respectively. ... -
Association of thraustochytrids and fungi with living marine algae
(Cambridge Univ Press, 1992)Occurrence of thraustochytrids, yeasts and mycelial fungi in six marine algae was studied. Thraustochytrids and mycelial fungi were recovered from non-surface-sterilized as well as surface-sterilized pieces of algae, whereas ... -

Endolithic fungi from deep sea calcareous substrata: isolation and laboratory studies
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)Fungi were isolated from calcareous animal shells at 100-860 m depth in the Bay of Bengal. All the species isolated were terrestrial ones, Aspergillus restrictus Smith being the most common. The behaviour of this fungus ... -
Distribution of Oxycephalidae (Hyperiidea-Amphipoda) in the Indian Ocean- A statistical study
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)Statistical analysis of oxycephalids on coexistence of the species showed two clusters of high affinity in the Arabian Sea, four in the Bay of Bengal, one in the South East Indian Ocean and three in the South West Indian ... -

Manglicolous fungi from India
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1992)This paper deals with nine Ascomycetous fungi viz. Rhizophila marina Hyde et Jones, Trematosphaeria striatispora Hyde, Lineolata rhizophorae (Kohlm. et. Kohlm.) Kohlm. et. Volkm.-Kohlm., Caryosporella rhizophorae Kohlm., ... -
Bacterivory: a novel dual role for thraustochytrids in the sea
(Springer, 1992)Two thraustochytrids, Thraustochytrium striatum Schneider and Schizochytrium mangrovei Raghukumar, isolated in 1989 in axenic cultures using pine pollen in seawater from mangroves in Goa, India, were observed in continuous-flow ... -
Zooplankton ecology of the mangrove habitats of Goa
(Wiley Eastern, New Delhi, 1992)Zooplankton community of the fringing mangroves along the upper reaches of Mandovi and Zuari estuaries, Goa, India was studied. The mangrove ecosystem is rather a harsh one for plankton owing to combination of periodic ... -
Interspecific genetic divergence in grey mullets from the Goa region
(Elsevier, 1992)Genetic divergence and phylogenetic relationships among Mugil cephalus, Liza subviridis and Valamugil cunnesius were investigated by examining the electrophoretic patterns of ten enzymes and sarcoplasmic proteins. Among ... -
