Description The pigmented, rod-shaped, Gram-negative,
motile bacteria isolated from marine sponge Callyspongia
diffusa exhibiting bioactivity was characterized as Shewanella
algae (GenBank: KC623651). The 16S rRNA gene
sequence-based phylogenetic analysis showed its similarity
with the member of Shewanella and placed in a separate
cluster with the recognized bacteria S. algae (PSB-05
FJ86678) with which it showed 99.0 % sequence similarity.
Growth of the strain was optimum at temperature
30 C, pH 8.0 in the presence of 2.0–4.0 % of NaCl. High
antibiotic activity against microbes such as Escherichia
coli (MTCC 40), S. typhii (MTCC 98), P. vulgaris (MTCC
426), V. fluvialis, V. anguillarum, E. cloacae, and L. lactis
was recorded. The growth of fungal pathogens such as
Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus fumigatus, Saccharomyces
cerevisiae, and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides was effectively
controlled.
