A shotgun approach to explore the bacterial diversity and a brief insight into the glycoside hydrolases of Samiti lake located in the Eastern Himalayas
Abstract:Background
The Himalayas have always been an enigma and, being biodiversity hotspots, are considered extremely important from an ecological point of view. Recent advances in studies regarding high-altitude lakes have garnered relevant importance as these habitats could harbor potential psychrophilic and psychrotrophic microbes with bio-prospective applications. Contemplating the above scenario, the present study has been undertaken to understand the diversity and the functional capacities of th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
