Widespread occurrence of chitinase-encoding genes suggests the Endozoicomonadaceae family as a key player in chitin processing in the marine benthos
Chitin is the most abundant natural polymer in the oceans, where it is primarily recycled by chitin-degrading microorganisms. Endozoicomonadaceae (Oceanospirillales) bacteria are prominent symbionts of sessile marine animals, particularly corals, and presumably contribute to nutrient cycling in thei...
