dc.description.abstract	A halotolerant, Gram positive, motile, rod was isolated from the salt pan sediments of Cavellosim, Salcette, Goa, India and screened for its antimicrobial potential. The strain showed an inhibitory effect specifically to Staphylococcus citreus. The isolate showed optimal growth as well as antibiotic production with 4 percent natural salt and could tolerate up to 6 percent salt. Dextrose and L-Tryptophan were found to be the best carbon and nitrogen sources for optimum antibiotic production. Based on morphological, biochemical, 16S rDNA sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, the strain was identified as B. marismortui.
