Description

Marine invertebrates produce a wide range of bioactive compounds that have significant potential as medications and research tools. Microorganisms are thought to be the biosynthetic source of marine invertebrate natural products in many cases. The use of molecular microbiology to investigate these linkages will help to advance basic biological knowledge and biotechnological development of these important resources. One interesting model system is the bryozoan (B. neritina), which produces bryostatin, and its particular symbiont "Candidatus Endobugula sertula" [1]. Listhistid sponges, which contain several bioactive compounds, some of which derive from bacterial symbionts, are another promising research topic. Most phylum of marine invertebrates have been described with microbial symbioses: Porifera, Cnidaria, Bryozoa, Mollusca, Pogonophora, Echinodermata, Urochordata, and Crustacea. Bacteria, archaea, and unicellular eukaryotes like dinoflagellates are examples of symbionts.

The Marine Microbial Biodiversity, Bioinformatics, and Biotechnology Project (Micro B3) combines high-throughput DNA sequencing of marine genomes, metagenomes, and pangenomes with intensive oceanographic monitoring, comprehensive biodiversity studies [2]. The project addresses interdisciplinary demands in marine ecosystem biology and biotechnology by examining recognized best practices across disciplines and devising practical least-change methods for aligning practices. Recognizing how difficult it is to change deeply ingrained working patterns that have been in place for decades, we have organized a series of workshops with representatives from several disciplines. The M2B3 Reporting Standard offers a set of recommended descriptors that place each marine microbial sample in a rich environmental context, allowing for better ecological interpretation and experimental repeatability. The Micro B3 Consortium recommends the standard's environmental criteria for describing each epipelagic microbial's environmental landscape. In this paper, we used a descriptor-based strategy to strike a balance between analysis-driven methodologies and current reporting practices in marine microbial sampling. We looked at many use cases from the fields of diatom biology and marine prokaryotic biodiversity using the requirements-driven approach [3].

The list of environmental variables to be measured at the time of microbial sample collection from the epipelagic zone represents the optimal list of environmental variables to be measured at the time of microbial sample collection from the epipelagic zone, as recorded and reported in these studies in order to answer the scientific questions posed in the studies [4]. Environmental variables were identified based on current marine sampling practice surveys and consultations with experts from European marine stations with established long-term sea monitoring programmes and a wealth of expertise, such as the Western Channel Observatory in the UK, the Station Biologique de Roscoff in France, the Stazione Zoologica in Naples, Italy, or the Biological Institute Helgola. According to the Primordial Soup Theory, life originated in a body of water, maybe a pond or ocean, when atmospheric chemicals mixed with some type of energy.

This combination gave rise to the amino acids, which are the building blocks of proteins, and may have resulted in the evolution of new species. As a result, oceans can be thought of as being rich in organic chemicals that are beneficial to the evolution and growth of life in general. Researchers began to focus on seas as a novel and untapped source of potentially beneficial bioactive molecules in the early 1960s. This could be due to the fact that the ocean covers more than 95% of the Earth's biosphere, and scientists want to find bioactive compounds in unexpected locations as antibiotic resistance rises and the creation of new bioactive compounds declines. Over the last five decades, more than 10,000 marine metabolites have been identified and described as a result [5]. The deep ocean and geothermal vents, a unique source in the world's oceans, are now attracting a lot of microbiological attention.

The marine microbiota is not only the most abundant in terms of quantity, but it also holds enormous potential as a biological resource of unknown size and promise. In the recent past, obligate barophiles, bacteria that require pressures as high as 600 atmospheres for growth, have been discovered in the deep marine environment. The huge miscellany of microorganisms in marine ecosystems is particularly perceptible, as certain groups of germs have special adaptations for high salt conditions and high hydrostatic pressure. Inagaki et al. also discovered previously unidentified prokaryotic communities, such as the JSI (Joint Service Interface) and DSAG (Development Support Agency of Gujarat) groups, in organic-rich deep marine sediments near methane hydrates around the Pacific Ocean margin [6]. They also proposed that microbial communities can be stratified in deep marine sediments, and that the community structure is greatly influenced by the surrounding geochemical and geological environments. It's becoming increasingly clear that several types of microbes can only be found in the sea.

The Marine Microbial Biodiversity, Bioinformatics, and Biotechnology Project (Micro B3) combines intensive oceanographic monitoring, comprehensive biodiversity studies, and high-throughput DNA sequencing of marine genomes, metagenomes, and pan-genomes with high-throughput DNA sequencing of marine genomes, metagenomes, and pan-genomes. The project examines recognized best practices across disciplines and devises realistic least-change strategies for aligning practices to meet trans disciplinary demands in marine ecosystem biology and biotechnology.
