Saprophytic bacteria are called decomposers or nature's scavengers because of their role in Soil Biology.
- Saprophytic bacteria do not develop within a living organism. These survive by feeding on the waste generated within the body of the organism.
- Saprophytic bacteria are not known to be extremely harmful with a few exceptions. Human skin and gastrointestinal tracts have numerous saprophytic bacteria.
- These microorganisms cause decay and breakdown as in souring of milk, manufacture of cheese and so on.
- Saprophytic bacteria breakdown the dead and decaying matter present in the soil, to simpler substances which can be further utilized by plants for preparing their food. This is very important for healthy growth and high yield.
