Abstract

In the present era marine biotechnologies are dominating the world of scientific research assisted by great advances in molecular biology techniques, and microbial community analysis provides useful tool to investigate their diversity and their potential for biotechnological applications. In fact, several marine organisms harbor diverse microbial associated communities, which play key roles for their host functioning and are rich sources of bioactive natural compounds. Here, we describe the fundamental steps of metataxonomic analysis of microbial communities associated with marine organisms.
