Article Synopsis
- - Corals are crucial to marine biodiversity, housing about 25% of all marine species, and studying their associated bacteria can aid in conservation efforts.
- - Researchers analyzed the bacteria associated with the coral Dipsastraea favus from the Gulf of Kutch, revealing dominance of bacteria from Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Actinobacteria, particularly genera like Vibrio and Bacillus.
- - The study identified 43 bacterial strains with antibiotic resistance capabilities, highlighting the potential of these microbes in developing methods for coral health and conservation.
