ABSTRACT
Isolation and enumeration of microbial diversity from the gastro intestinal tract (foregut, midgut and hindgut) of Etroplus suratensis have been carried out to find out their importance in the nutrition of the host fish. Proteolytic, amylolytic, lipolytic and cellulolytic bacteria were detected in the fish gut. Among specific enzyme producing bacteria, proteolytic and cellulolytic bacteria were present at higher number within the foregut, midgut and hindgut of E. suratensis respectively. Altogether twenty bacterial genera were identified by biochemical approaches. In general Bacillus sp., Pseudomonas sp. and Micrococcus sp. were the dominant groups, which were followed by Enterobacter, Klebsiella, Staphylococcus, Flavobacterium and Chromobacterium.
