Effects of gelling agent and extracellular signaling molecules on the culturability of marine bacteria [PDF]
Only 1% of marine bacteria are currently culturable using standard laboratory procedures, and this is a major obstacle for our understanding of the biology of marine microorganisms and for the discovery of novel microbial natural products. Therefore, the
