dc.description.abstract | Cuturable heterotrophic bacterial counts (viable counts: VC) by surface plating on ZoBell medium and total bacterial counts (TC) by epifuorenscence microscopy were carried out in sea water off the southwest coast of India during the monsoon. TC were three orders of magnitude higher than VC. @iPseudomonas/Alteromonas@@ group 1 was dominant in both nearshore and offshore regions. Pigmented bacteria were more abundant in offshore stations and showed multiple antibiotic resistence. Statistically there was found to be no significant differences in bacterial number and their activities betwen offshore and nearshore isolates. Nevertheless, the former tend to be more versatile and resistant to metals and drugs | |
