    Abstract
    In the present study, 11 sponge-associated Actinobac-teria showed 316 inhibitory interactions against 75 heterotrophic bacteria as each Actinobacteria inhibit-ed the growth of >1 bacterial isolates from the sponge and ambient water. The antagonistic activity depend-ed on the source of isolation and the taxonomic group of heterotrophic bacteria. The order of inhibition of bacteria by Actinobacteria was ambient water > cortex > mesohyl tissues of sponge. The absence of certain genera in the sponge might be because of the inhibition by sponge-associated Actino-bacteria. Hence, the antagonistic property of Actino-bacteria in the sponges may influence the selection of resident sponge-associated bacteria.
