Exploring Marine Prokaryotic Diversity in Eastern Indonesian Area

Limited literatures exist on marine prokaryotes from eastern Indonesian marine environments, whereas considering its vast marine environment (around 80% of total area) this area surely harbors various prokaryotes of particular interest. The purpose of this poster is to briefly review earlier studies on marine prokaryotes from several locations in eastern Indonesian marine environments, and to present initial results of the explorations on certain types of marine prokaryotes isolated from Maluku province waters.
