Abstract

Microbial communities in marine deep-sea sediments represent highly productive and bioactive living organism potential despite the extremely oligotrophic feature of the Mediterranean Sea. Else, the characterization of natural microbial communities from deep-sea sediments is still important for marine microbial ecological studies in relation with environmental conditions. Therefore, we assessed the microbial communities (bacteria and diatoms) in sediments obtained from three deep Mediterranean sites (an oceanic Atlantic site and two Western and Eastern sites), using Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM), culturing viable forms of bacteria and their biochemical characterization besides hydrobiological and chemical characteristics of the three sites
