Description
Summary:Marine microorganisms are complex and diverse. They thrive in conditions of extreme pressure, salinity, and temperature as commensals, epibionts, or symbionts. Their potential to produce bioactive metabolites is a reflection of their versatile metabolism and physiology char enabled them to survive the complex marine environment. They may occur as free-Jiving entities or in associa­tion with eukaryotes such as the marine invertebrates. They inhabit sur­faces, tissues, and internal spaces of host organisms. In this study, the cultural and morphological features of the microbial isolate P129-1, which manifested an inhibitory activity against S aureus ATCC 12600, was determined with the end view of ascertaining the identity and phylogenetic relationship of the isolate with other bacteria.
