Soil actinomycetes are known as very versatile micro-machinery having tremendous
potential to produce enzymes like cellulases, chitinases, proteases, and other agro …

More than 20,000 species of prokaryotes (less than 1% of the estimated number of Earth's
microbial species) have been described thus far. However, the vast majority of microbes that …

Knowledge of the agricultural soil microbiota, of the microbial consortia that comprise it, and
the promotion of agricultural practices that maintain and encourage them, is a promising way …

Caves have been an item of amateur and professional exploration for many years. Research
on the karst caves has revealed great diversity of bacteria, algae, and fungi living on stone …

Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous photosynthetic prokaryotes responsible for the oxygenation of
the earth's reducing atmosphere. Apart from oxygen they are producers of a myriad of …

Metagenomic studies of soil microbocenoses are extremely relevant nowadays. The study of
pollution impact on soil microbiomes is of particular interest. The structure of microbial …

The microbial production of enzymes has been gaining prominence in the industry,
