Isolation and phylogenetic analysis of bacteria with antimicrobial activities from the mediterranean sponges aplysina aerophoba and aplysina cavernicola
TLDR
The high recovery of strains with antimicrobial activity suggests that marine sponges represent an ecological niche which harbors a hitherto largely uncharacterized microbial diversity and, concomitantly, a yet untapped metabolic potential.About:

Sponge-Associated Microorganisms: Evolution, Ecology, and Biotechnological Potential
TL;DR: The ecology of sponge-microbe associations is examined, including the establishment and maintenance of these sometimes intimate partnerships, the varied nature of the interactions (ranging from mutualism to host-pathogen relationships), and the broad-scale patterns of symbiont distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine sponges as microbial fermenters
TL;DR: This review covers recent findings regarding diversity, biogeography and population dynamics of sponge-associated microbiota, and the data are discussed within the larger context of the microbiology of the ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolites from symbiotic bacteria
TL;DR: This review describes secondary metabolites that have been shown to be synthesized by symbiotic bacteria, or for which this possibility has been discussed, and includes 365 references.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drugs from the seas – current status and microbiological implications
TL;DR: Molecular methods have successfully been applied to study the microbial diversity in marine sponges and to gain evidence for an involvement of bacteria in the biosynthesis of the bryostatins in the Bryozoan Bugula neritina.

TL;DR: Two phylotypes of the candidate genus ‘Entotheonella’ with genomes of greater than 9 megabases and multiple, distinct biosynthetic gene clusters co-inhabit the chemically and microbially rich marine sponge Theonella swinhoei.

TL;DR: Molecular Cloning has served as the foundation of technical expertise in labs worldwide for 30 years as mentioned in this paper and has been so popular, or so influential, that no other manual has been more widely used and influential.

TL;DR: Amorphous metal alloys are employed in acoustic devices dependent upon the properties of low acoustic velocity and low attenuation, such as wire, strip and bulk delay lines.

Isolation and purification of cyanobacteria.
TL;DR: The origin of many cyanobacteria currently in culture is poorly characterized because little more is known about their habitat than that they were derived from a soil sample, freshwater, or marine environment, which is rather restricted information.

Culturability and In Situ Abundance of Pelagic Bacteria from the North Sea
TL;DR: The culturability of abundant members of the domain bacteria in North Sea bacterioplankton was investigated by a combination of various cultivation strategies and cultivation-independent 16S rRNA-based techniques and predicted a limit to the isolation of unculturable marine bacteria, particularly the gamma-proteobacterial SAR86 cluster.
