About Marine Sponges and Natural Products

This cluster of papers focuses on the evolution, ecology, and biotechnological potential of sponge-associated microorganisms. It explores the diverse microbial communities inhabiting sponges, their role in marine natural product production, and their potential as a source of new antimicrobial drugs. The papers also investigate the phylogenetic diversity, host specificity, and functional interactions of these microbial symbionts.
