biodiversity, strains, ecosystem, microbiology, sedimentAbstract
Bacteria of the Bacillus genus are known for their benefits in the field of aquaculture, as some strains produce enzymes, antibiotics and bioactive compounds that promote biological control and a balanced ecosystem. In this study, Bacillus strains were isolated and morphologically characterized from sediments of the mangrove swamp of Puerto Hualtaco. Three sediment samples were collected and cultured on chromogenic agar for 24 to 48 hours. Biochemical tests, growth analyzes at different pH and salinity levels were carried out, and the bacteria were characterized according to their micro and macroscopic morphology. The results showed a great diversity in the shape and color of the colonies, a high metabolic versatility and resistance of the strains to different environments, which suggests great biotechnological potential. This study enriches knowledge about microbial biodiversity in mangroves and underlines the importance of Bacillus bacteria in these ecosystems.
