Brief Description (Abstract):

Soil and sediment samples collected around Indian Station ?Maitri? (Antarctica) were analyzed for presence of anaerobic microbial population. The anaerobic counts for soil and sediments varied from 1 ? 102 to 8.5xlO4 and 2xlO 2 to 3.7x lO5 C F U gm-l soil and sediment samples respectively. Almost all the soil samples showed the presence of anaerobic psychrotrophs whereas. 7 7. 5 % of them supported the growth of anaerobic psychrophiles. In sediment samples an anaerobic psychrophile were found more abundant than psychrotrophs. Further, studies on characterization of anaerobes and production of cold adopted anzymes are suggested.

Status: Completed

Purpose: The objective of the present study was to detect the abundance of anaerobes from different ecological niche of Antarctica.
