Abstract
A dark-coloured thin film of cyanobacteria growing on the bottom of a submerged stone was isolated from Basantgarh village in Udhampur district, Jammu and Kashmir, India. The isolated strain (designated 19C-PST) was characterized using a polyphasic approach. The strain exhibited typical Nostoc -like morphology with a characteristic feature of having heterocytes in series. The 16S rRNA gene phylogeny placed the
