Advanced research in the supralittoral zone for plastic biodegradation: NGS and bioinformatics analysis on the symbiotic bacteria from the hepatopancreas of Tylos ponticus (Crustacea, Isopoda).
A deep understanding of halophilic bacteria that produce hydrolytic enzymes has broad relevance to biotechnological sectors, including marine biomass conversion and plastic biodegradation. Here, we investigated the hepatopancreas and gut microbiome of the oniscidean isopod Tylos ponticus associated with beached leaves of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica (Posidonia banquette).
