Iron released from ilmenite mineral sustains a phytoplankton community in microcosms
(Walter de Gruyter, 2011)
Natural biotic communities from Kalbadevi Bay were monitored in microcosms (1-l glass flasks) to test the hypothesis that iron released from ilmenite through microbial action contributes to proliferation of phytoplankton. ...
Astrobiological implications of dim light phototrophy in deep-sea red clays
(Elsevier, 2017)
Red clays of Central Indian Basin (CIB) under influence of trace of Rodriguez Triple Junction exhibited chemoautotrophy, low temperature hydrothermal alterations and photoautotrophic potential. Seamount flank TVBC-08, ...
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 ...
Microbial and biochemical alterations due to storage of deep-sea sediments under ambient tropical conditions
(NISCAIR Publications, 2016)
Response of indigenous bacteria to incubation at normal pressure and tropical temperature (28 ± 2°C), were examined in four deep-sea sediments from polymetallic-nodule fields in Central Indian Basin (CIB). Sediments were ...
