Sponges are closely associated with microorganisms that occur either intracellularly and extracellularly.
Sponges are soft-bodied sessile organisms appear to be defenseless in facing predation. Microbial symbionts
supposed to have a functional role in the host defense against pathogens, predation and microfouling processes.
Recently, the ubiquitous defense enzyme, phospholipase A2 (PLA2) detected in the sponge associated
bacterium envisaged the possible functional role in the ecological succession of host sponge against predatory
/ fouling pressure in the habitat. In present review, we highlighted the possible functional interactions
between associated microbes and host sponges and its potentials in bioprospecting approaches.
