Diversity of marine bacteriophages from the southern coast of india
The project aims to identify and classify the different types of bacteriophages present in the marineenvironment along the southern coast of India. By studying the genetic diversity of these bacteriophages,the project seeks to understand their evolutionary relationships and adaptations to the marineenvironment. The project also aims to explore the potential applications of these bacteriophages inbiotechnology, focusing on their use in phage therapy and as biocontrol agents in aquaculture. Ultimately,this research will enhance our understanding of marine biodiversity, particularly the often understudiedbacteriophage component, which plays a crucial role in ecosystem functioning
