FOREWORD
It has been a good experience to go through the first Compendium on the outcome of R & D Projects in
Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology supported by DBT through the Task Force Mechanism during the period
from 1998 to 2010. Taking the journey forward since 2010 onwards, I am delighted to see the progress in Marine
Biology and Biotechnology sector which is in a large measure due to the efforts of the Committee Members. The
priorities of research have been well conceptualized and good proposals formulated addressing the country’s need
for sustainable and judicious utilization of its long coast line for production of high value products like nutraceuticals,
marine drugs and chemicals, novel enzymes and proteins. Efforts have been made to utilize the research leads for
commercialization of technologies and product and process development. The DBT has extended support to about
300 scientists for various research projects, the outcome of which could be about 205 publications in nationally and
internationally reputed journals. Half-a-dozen patents have been filed and a few more are in the process of being
filed. More than 30 PhDs have been produced. Even the staffs engaged in various projects have been employed in
Aquaculture and Marine Biology sectors to work on various aspects through R & D.
The outcome of DBT funded projects has been brought out as a compendium with publications, technologies
developed and commercialized, and innovations patented. It is worth mentioning that some of these technologies
have already been launched in the market and generating good income.
I am sure that this Compendium would be very useful for the scientists, researchers and entrepreneurs working
in the sector. I personally compliment the programme division for bringing out the same.

INTRODUCTION
Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology have been the subject of great
importance not only because of the sustainable utilization of their resources to
feed the billion people of the world but also for the future challenges for discovery
of new products and process development of economic importance through its
treasure recognition and diversification. Apart from contributing to high quality
and healthy food (aquaculture), nutraceuticals and medicinal products (anticancer and antimicrobials), this sector is expected to contribute to sustainable
alternative source of energy (biofuel from microalgae) and environmental
health. The potential for the contribution of Marine Biotechnology is, therefore,
even more relevant now than it was ten years ago and a sound strategy for its
development in India is urgently needed to allow this potential to be realized.
The Department of Biotechnology (DBT) has been instrumental in promoting
marine science and aquaculture under the programme area of Aquaculture
and Marine Biotechnology, for more than two decades now. A Taskforce was
established for this purpose to fund projects in the priority areas identified in
R & D and till today more than 300 projects have been supported to carry out
the research in multi-deciplanry areas on detection and prevention of aquatic
animal diseases, development of fish and shellfish cell lines, immunostimulants,
bioactive molecules (including antiplasmodial molecule), fish feed and nutrition,
bioadhesive, biosurfactants, biofuel from marine resources, probiotics, human
therapeutic compounds from marine resource etc. To publicise the achievements
in this sector, the department brought out the first compendium in 2011 covering
research achievements from 1998 till 2010, the first of its kind for the benefit
of marine scientists and researchers working in this area and to promote DBT
activities through research funding opportunities. The remarkable outcomes
are due to the dedicated and strenuous efforts of the Principal Investigators and
Co-Investigators with the mentorship of scientists and the coordinators working
in an advisory capacity. The outcome of DBT funded projects is the availability of
sensitive diagnostic tools such as PCR kit for shrimp viruses including WSSV and
RT-PCR for fish nodavirus. Some of these kits are in good demand in aquaculture
industry. Vaccines have been developed against fish viral (fish nodavirus)
and bacterial pathogens (Aeromonas hydrophila, Edwardsiella tarda and Vibrio
anguillarum) under Indo-Norwegian programme during the period from 2010
to 2014. Viral, bacterial and herbal immunostimulants have been formulated to
control WSSV and V. harveyii in the culture systems. The recent RNAi technology
has been adopted to control WSSV infection in shrimp. Field trials are now
being carried out to validate the efficacy of this technique under SIBRI scheme in
collaboration with GPS Biotech, Hyderabad.
Our first compendium on the research outcome of DBT sponsored projects
sanctioned during the period from 1998 to 2010 covering publications, patents
and technology transfer etc was compiled and published in 2011. Out of seven

patents filed for product/process development two have been granted. Seven technologies have been successfully
transferred to industry for commercialization. This compendium has been distributed to different parts of the
country among the researchers and was found to be useful to the scientists to identify the grey areas to strengthen
the research in the field of aquaculture and marine biotechnology.
Attempt has been made to develop fish cell lines from a variety of fish. Cell line program was initiated with
single fish species and subsequently it led to the formation of a network programme involving many research
organizations to develop more number of cell lines from a variety of fish during the period from 2010 to 2014. As
a result, more than fifty cell lines from a variety of fish have been developed and made available to the scientific
community through DBT funding. A Fish Cell Line Repository Facility has been established in NBFGR, Lucknow
to hold all these cell lines for scientific research.
A bioreactor has been designed for Re-circulating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) to help to remove organic matter
and ammonia by the nitrifying bacterial consortia immobilized on the cartridges in culture systems. Bioremediation
technique developed to adopt zero water exchange in shrimp culture system, has been commercialized for
multiplying the device for large scale field trials. Molecular signal intervention approach has been developed to
induce the maturation in shrimp to avoid the existing technique of eye stalk ablation.
Biocomposite of chitosan and fucoidan isolated from shrimp shell waste and marine algae was prepared in
varying compositions and the wound healing ability of the biocomposite film/bandage was evaluated. A shrimp
waste based biocomposite gel/ointment was found to be more promising than standard ointments for burn
wound healing in experimental animals. This was prepared in the form of a collagen-chitosan film from the
extracted collagen and shrimp shell chitosan along with drugs for wound healing property incorporated in the
film. The trials have shown promising result and steps are being initiated for commercialization. Gelatin based
edible film was developed from queen fish and grouper skin gelatin. The film prepared is transparent, strong and
had good barrier and digestibility properties.
Network programmes have been sanctioned during this period to explore bioactive molecules from marine
actinobacteria, complete genome analysis of the important freshwater aquaculture fish Labeo rohita (Rohu, a
carp) and Clarias batrachus (walking catfish). New programme on National Training Programme in molecular
biology and biotechnology for fisheries professionals and a programme on fish reproduction addressing sex
manipulation aspects in common carp through endocrinological approaches have been additions to the basket of
marine biotechnology programme.
In continuation of our efforts, attempt has been made to compile the outcome of the DBT-funded projects
sanctioned during the period from 2011 to 2014 and present the details in the form of publications, patents,
research leads, Ph.D. awarded, placements and products in the market. The details of research leads, Ph.D.
awarded, products in the market and placements have been included to add more value to this compendium.

Publications
One of the important outcomes of DBT funded R & D projects is publications in well reputed journals.
The total number of publications contributed by 86 principal investigators (PI) under Aquaculture and Marine
Biotechnology Taskforce is 205 during the period from 2011 to 2014. Among the 86 PIs, 28 PIs have not published
any research articles. The number of publications during the period from 2011 to 2014 increased to 205 from
180 during the period from 1998 to 2010. Among 205 publications, 166 are International and the remaining
are National publications. The number of publications in 2011 was 37 and it gradually increased to 49 in 2012,
46 in 2013 and 73 in 2014 (Fig. 1). The Impact Factor for these publications ranged from 0.313 (Indian Journal
of Marine Sciences) to 8.057 (PLOS Pathogens). Dr.S.Mazumder has published one research article in the journal
PLOS pathogens which has the highest impact factor among 205 publications (Banerjee et al., 2014). The number
of publications with impact factor of less than 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and above 5 is 27, 53, 39, 28, 07 and 09, respectively
(Fig. 2). The number of publications published in the journals without impact factor is 42. The number of PIs
with publications of less than 5, 10, and more than 10 is 48, 8 and 2, respectively (Fig. 3). The number of PIs
of projects with no publications is 28. Dr.A.S.Sahul Hameed has published 20 papers followed by Dr.Indrani
Karunasagar (19) during the period from 2011 to 2014 from DBT funded R & D projects. Among 374 Indian
authors who contributed publications in the Aquaculture journal during the period from 1972 to 2011, Dr.A. S.
Sahul Hameed scored first rank with 27 publications, followed by Indrani Karunasagar who scored second rank
with 20 publications (Ramasamy et al., 2014).
