dc.description.abstractMarine sponges are known to harbour diverse microorganisms which have been proposed to be involved in the synthesis of most of the natural compounds derived from sponges. However, only about 1% of these microorganisms can currently be identified through culturebased approaches, limiting the discovery of novel natural compounds. To overcome this limitation, a metagenomics approach has been introduced for the discovery of natural compounds from symbiotic bacterial metagenomic DNA.
