| Research Abstract |
Although a key issue is to find enzymes and/or marine microorganisms which efficiently degrade seaweed, many bacteria are difficult to culture. We attempted enrichment of gut microflora of marine invertebrates by controlling food supply. A brown macro alga (Ecklonia cava) was fed to sea snail (Turbo cornutus) and sea hare (Dolabella auricularia) for a month. Using DNA extracted from gut, 16S rDNA was amplified by PCR and cloned. Nucleotide sequences of a total of 96 clones per individual were determined. In the sea snail, Vibrio spp. drastically decreased and Psychrilyobacter spp. progressively increased, suggesting Psychrilyobacter spp. may have enzymes for efficiently degrading the macro alga. We also observed many alginate lyase genes and the increased enzyme activity as well. Thus, the bacterial flora can be modified through consecutive feeding of specific seaweed, and enriched gut microflora can be a rich source of the highly efficient enzymes for total seaweed degradation.
