4.4.4. Carbon processes
Bacterial genera, like some genera in Colwelliaceae[10, 64] Flavobacterium, Arthrobacter, Serratia, Bacillus, Enterobacter, Vibrio, [65]Pseudoalteromonas [64] andAchromobacter [66] produce chitinase. The presence of chitinase gene in CAB is not surprising as their foregut and hindgut are made up of chitin [11]. The overall outline of CAB-mediated biogeochemical pathways is represented in Figure 6.
