Abstract

Increased prevalence of microbial resistance and development of drug-resistant pathogens have triggered an urge among researchers to discover potential antimicrobial compounds, particularly from the marine habitat. The present study highlights the cultivable diversity and bioactivities of heterotrophic bacteria associated with marine macroalgae of southeast Indian coastal region. Culture-dependent isolation method resulted in 40 isolates, in which greater part of the isolates represented Gammaproteobacteria (62%) followed by that comprised of the phylum Firmicutes. One of the most active strains isolated from a macroalga, Laurencia papillosa, was characterized based on the integrated phenotypic and genotypic analysis as Bacillus velezensis MBTDLP1 MTCC 13048, with an inhibition zone of about 35 mm against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), was selected for bioprospecting studies.
