Occurrence of Streptomyces aurantiacus in mangroves of Bhitarkanika

Abstract: Thirteen strains of Streptomyces were isolated from phyllosphere of nine mangrove tree species found in Bhitarkanika mangrove ecosystem of Orissa. According to physiological, biochemical data, all 13 of the isolates were taxonomically identified to the genus Streptomyces as aurantiacus species. All strains are grayish, spirals and forming amorphous colony. Almost all utilized araginose, produced H2S, resistant towards rifampicin and penicillin, urea except few strains. However, they exhibited different extrace… Show more

“…In the present study, among the five sites studied, pH of Budhabalanga was maximum (8.45 ± 0.09) is alkaline in comparison to Devi having minimum (5.79 ± 0.14) is acidic in nature which is consistent with the range (4.5 to 9) specified by Costerton et al [15] for microbial activity to take place whereas in contrast more uptake of CO 2 by the photosynthetic organisms could have increased the pH level. Similar range of pH has also been reported by earlier workers [16][17][18]. A significant correlation obtained between for pH with salinity, alkalinity and conductivity (Tables 2-6) has revealed the influence of salinity over pH.…”

“…Several terrestrial Streptomyces are capable of producing detectable amounts of L-asparaginase. There are limited reports on production of L-asparaginase from marine Streptomyces like Streptomyces aurantiacus (Gupta et al, 2007). Streptomycetes and Micromonospora sp are distributed in both marine and terrestrial environments.…”
