Anaerobic denitrification in fungi from the coastal marine sediments off Goa, India
(Elsevier, 2009)
Denitrification is a microbial process during which nitrate or nitrite is reduced under anaerobic condition to gaseous nitrogen. The Arabian Sea contains one of the major pelagic denitrification zones and in addition to ...
Bacterial standing stock, meiofauna and sediment-nutrient characteristics: Indicators of benthic disturbance in the Central Indian Basin
(Pergamon, 2001)
As a part of the environmental impact assessment studies for polymetallic nodule mining, the effect of simulated "benthic disturbance" caused by a benthic hydraulic disturber was studied in the Central Indian Basin (CIB). ...
Deep-sea fungi as a source of alkaline and cold-tolerant proteases
(Elsevier, 2006)
Fungi from coastal environments have been widely studied with respect to the production of secondary metabolites and biotechnologically useful lignocellulolytic enzymes. A few studies on mycology of deep-sea sediments, ...
Algal-fungal interactions in the marine ecosystem: Symbiosis to parasitism
(CSMCRI, India, 2006)
A wide array of partnership exists between algae and fungi. These range from loose commensal association between algae and fungi as in primitive lichens, obligate symbiotic association termed mycophycobioses between the ...
Preface to: Special issue on Marine mycology
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2006)
Dynamics of thraustochytrid protists in the water column of the Arabian Sea
(Inter-Research, 2001)
Thraustochytrids, a group of osmoheterotrophic chromistan protists are ubiquitous in the sea. However, little is known of their ecological role, particularly in oceanic waters. To obtain in insight into their dynamics in ...
Composition of macrobenthos from the central Indian Ocean Basin
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2009)
The deep sea is well known for its high faunal diversity. But the current interest in its abundant polymetallic nodules, poses a threat to the little known benthic organisms surviving in this unique environment. The present ...
Decolorization of molasses spent wash by the white-rot fungus Flavodon flavus, isolated from a marine habitat
(Springer, 2001)
Flavodon flavus (Klotzsch) Ryvarden, a basidiomycete (NIOCC strain 312) isolated from decomposing leaves of a sea grass, decolorized pigments in molasses spent wash (MSW) by 80% after 8 days of incubation, when used at ...
Removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from aqueous media by the marine fungus NIOCC 312: Involvement of lignin-degrading enzymes and exopolysaccharides
(NISCAIR, CSIR, 2006)
The removal of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from aqueous culture medium by the lignin-degrading marine fungus NIOCC 312, obtained from decaying seagrass from a coral reef lagoon is reported here. The percentage of ...
Treatment of colored effluents with lignin-degrading enzymes: An emerging role of marine-derived fungi
(Informa Healthcare, 2008)
Some of the industries that discharge highly colored effluents are paper and pulp mills, textiles and dye-making industries, alcohol distilleries, and leather industries. Terrestrial white-rot basidiomycetous fungi and ...
