Abundance, viability and culturability of Antarctic bacteria
(Department of Ocean Development, New Delhi, India, 1999)
The viability of total number of bacteria decide the mineralisation rate in any ecosystem and ultimately the fertility of the region. This study aims at establishing the extent of viability in the standing stock of the ...
Microbial aspects of coastal waters
(NIO, Goa, 1993)
Occurrence of Photobacterium leiognathi, as the bait organ symbiont in frogfish Antennarius hispidus
(NISCAIR, New Delhi, 1992)
Bait organs of the frogfish Antennarius hispidus, collected from a coralline habitat off Bombay, Maharashtra, India from the depth of about 50 m, were luminescent and revealed the exclusive presence of luminous bacterium ...
Tropical marine ecosystems: The microbial component
(Wiley Eastern, New Delhi, 1992)
Microbes such as bacteria, fungi and unicellular algae assume greater importance in the tropical marine ecosystems because of their abundance, biomass and activity in a number of chemical and biological processes that ...
FiveS rRNA sequences and fatty acid profiles of colourless sulfur-oxidising bacteria
(Publ. and Inf. Dir., New Delhi, India, 1994)
Colourless sulfur-oxidising bacteria have been encountered extensively in the oxygen minimum layers of the Arabian Sea. These oligotrophs have been known to mediate nitrogen cycle reductively even under autotrophic conditions. ...
Computerizing marine biota: a rational approach
(1991)
Data on marine biota while being extensive are also patchy and scattered; thus making retrieval and dissemination of information time consuming. This emphasise the need for computerizing information on marine biota with ...
Nitrate and sulfate reducers-retrievable number of bacteria and their activities in Indian waters
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 1992)
Culturable heterotrophic, nitrate reducing and sulfate reducing bacteria (HB, NRB and SRB) were enumerated from 25, 50, 100 and 200 m depths at 15 stations and their potential activities viz. Nitrate reducing (NRA) and ...
Bacterial bioluminescence in marine pollution assessment
(Publ. and Inf. Dir., New Delhi, India, 1994)
Warm water marine luminous bacterial species, particularly Vibrio harveyi, V. fischeri and Photobacterium leiognathi, are easy to isolate, maintain and handle in the laboratories without strict temperature requirements, ...
Bacterial flora of pond reared Penaeus indicus (Milne Edwards)
(Oxford and IBH, 1998)
The population size, generic diversity and potential to produce hydrolytic enzymes of heterotrophic bacteria associated with pond reared Penaeus indicus was worked out following standard bacteriological procedures. ...
