The Amazon biome harbors a great diversity of microorganisms, which have been poorly explored to date, concealing a vast biotechnological potential. Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic microorganisms known for their potential to produce bioactive compounds with diverse applications. They are often associated with a variety of bacteria that remain firmly attached, making it challenging to obt…
The Amazon is one of the world's wealthiest and least explored biomes, hiding great microbial diversity. This diversity is associated with different habitats, including other organisms, where they live as symbionts. Sponges are one of the leading and most important organisms in the holobiont concept, presenting associations mainly with archaea and bacteria. Cyanobacteria are photosyntheti…
Sponges are filter-feeding holobionts and survive due to a symbiotic system with a microbial consortium living within them. Through the production of secondary metabolites, the sponge-associated microbiota protects them against predators, toxins, and pathogenic microorganisms. Such substances may additionally present biotechnological potential, such as antiviral, antitumor, antimicrobial,…
