Abstract:

Pseudomonasaeruginosa well known for its bioremediation property is found in various ecosystems.IfPseudomonasaeruginosa is introduced in the aquatic environment in a scientific manner during the production of fish and prawn the trace element contamination can be easily addressed by a way of bioremediation.West Godavari district in Andhra Pradesh is well established for aqua culture ponds, as the land and climatic conditions support for it. Commercial culturing of fish and prawn in this region has been practiced from decades which helped in contribution of nutritious food in the form of aqua products. But production of these aquatic produce in a controlled condition is a big challenge for the farmers which is the area focused in the present study. The role of microorganisms in maintaining balance of some parameters for better yield was studied which revealed that heavy metals such as Cd, Cr, Pb and Cu are under bioremediation process byPseudomonas aeruginosa in some aqua ponds of West Godavari district, Andhra Pradesh. Using MIC technique, it is revealed that this microorganism isolated from those aqua ponds have shown bioremediation as Cu
