Abstract:
      Enhanced degradation of organic matter in aquaculture systems has drawn increasing interests. A study was performed to screen and identify organic-matter-degrading probiotic bacteria from tilapia culture system using 16S rDNA method. Their ability to degrade and utilize organic carbon in leachate and original solution of tilapia feed was also determined using COD and ECO microplate method, respectively. Six strains were found to significantly degrade organic matter in the leachates. After 72 h incubation, the degradation rates of organic matter were up to 53.49% for the strain D51, followed by the strain D11(48.83%). The strains D51, D11 and D45 also had high abilities to degrade organic matter in the original feed solution. After 15 d incubation, they decreased COD values in the original feed solution by 52.46%, 46.03% and 46.03%, respectively. The strain D45 showed significantly stronger carbon utilization than the other strains did, with the strains D52 and D53 being the lowest. 16S rDNA identification showed that D11 was Bacillus sp. and the strain D45, D51, D52 and D53 were Exiguobacterium sp. These results suggest that the strains D11, D45 and D51 have great organic degradation potential and warrant more indepth studies.
