Marine microbiology: A glimpse of the strides in the Indian and the global arena
(Oxford and IBH, New Delhi, 2001)
The chapter reviews the development in marine microbiology in the national and international arena. It traces salient features from the pre-Zobell era to the mid 1990s. The studies in India have just made a beginning into ...
'Trade-off' in Antarctic bacteria: limnetic psychrotrophs concede multiple enzyme expressions for multiple metal resistance
(Springer, 2007)
The present study examines the metal and antibiotic resistant bacteria in ice and water from lakes east and west of the Indian base camp (Maitri) in Antarctica. The isolates from western and eastern lakes showed distinct ...
Distribution of baroduric, psychrotrophic and culturable nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria in the Central Indian Basin
(National Institute of Ocean Technology, 2004)
The abundance of baroduric, culturable nitrifying and denitrifying bacteria in the deep-sea cores of Central Indian Basin (CIB) at ca 5000 m depth was investigated. Analysis of 8 cores, sampled between 10 degrees 00 minutes ...
Metal and antibiotic-resistance in psychrotrophic bacteria from Antarctic marine waters
(Springer, 2006)
In the wake of the findings that Antarctic krills concentrate heavy metals at ppm level, (Yamamoto et al., 1987), the Antarctic waters from the Indian side were examined for the incidence of metal and antibiotic-resistant ...
A deep-sea bacterium with unique nitrifying property
(Indian Academy of Sciences, 2001)
Sediment cores collected from the Central Indian Basin (10°1¢–10°2¢S, 75°59¢–76°2¢E) harboured a high population of nitrifying bacteria which ranged from 103 to 107 cfu per gram dry weight. This high density could contribute ...
UV radiation and natural fluorescence linked primary production in Antarctic waters
(Marine Biological Association of India, 2001)
Primary productivity and chlorophyll values have been measured using an underwater profiling radiometer for the first time in the waters around Indian Antarctic Station (70°46'S & 11°44'E) in the summer of 1994. The profiles ...
Limno-tolerant bacteria govern nitrate concentration in Mandovi estuary, India
(Elsevier, 2009)
The spatial and temporal abundances of limno-tolerant and halo-tolerant bacteria were investigated in the tide-dominated Mandovi estuary along the west coast of India. These investigations were carried out in relation to ...
Assessment of viability in the bacterial standing stock of the Antarctic Sea from the Indian side
(Ifremer/ CNRS/ IRD/ Editions scientifiques et medicales Elsevier SAS. Tous droits reserves, 2001)
During the austral summer, the bacterial population along the cruise track extending from 70 degrees S and 18 degrees E to 30 degrees S and 35 degrees E are examined. During the cruise, three distinct fractions of the ...
Seasonal dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) variability in Dona Paula Bay
(Elsevier, 2009)
Data on temporal variations of total dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSPt) and the environmental factors that influence DMSPt concentrations are important in understanding the biogeochemical cycling of organic sulfur compounds. ...
Abundance and production of particle-associated bacteria and their role in a mangrove-dominated estuary
(Inter-Research, 2009)
A 1 yr study was carried out in the mangrove-dominated, tropical Mandovi estuary (Goa, India) to assess the contribution of particle-associated bacteria (PAB) to the system’s variability in terms of abundance and productivity. ...
