Glycerol metabolism of haloarchaea [PDF]
Summary Haloarchaea are heterotrophic members of the Archaea that thrive in hypersaline environments, often feeding off the glycerol that is produced as an osmolyte by eucaryotic Dunaliella during primary production.

Phylogenomics of Haloarchaea: The Controversy of the Genera Natrinema-Haloterrigena [PDF]
The haloarchaeal genera Natrinema and Haloterrigena were described almost simultaneously by two different research groups and some strains studied separately were described as different species of these genera. Furthermore, the description of additional species were assigned to either Natrinema or Haloterrigena, mainly on the basis of the phylogenetic ...

Sizing chromosomes and megaplasmids in haloarchaea [PDF]
PFGE was used for the genomic analysis of different species and strains belonging to four out of the six recognized haloarchaeal (halobacterial) genera. All of them were found to carry one chromosome from 1.8-3 Mb, and usually several, but at least one, large plasmids of approximately 90-680 kb, which were detected in supercoiled and linear forms.

Mechanisms of Metal Resistance and Homeostasis in Haloarchaea [PDF]
Haloarchaea are the predominant microflora of hypersaline econiches such as solar salterns, soda lakes, and estuaries where the salinity ranges from 35 to 400 ppt. Econiches like estuaries and solar crystallizer ponds may contain high concentrations of metals since they serve as ecological sinks for metal pollution and also as effective traps for river

Responses of Haloarchaea to Simulated Microgravity [PDF]
Various effects of microgravity on prokaryotes have been recognized in recent years, with the focus on studies of pathogenic bacteria. No archaea have been investigated yet with respect to their responses to microgravity. For exposure experiments on spacecrafts or on the International Space Station, halophilic archaea (haloarchaea)

Haloarchaea, the extremely halophilic branch of the Archaea domain, encompass a steadily increasing number of genera and associated species which accumulate polyhydroxyalkanoate biopolyesters in their cytoplasm.

The halophilic archaea (haloarchaea) live in saline environments, which are found across the globe. In addition to salinity, these niches can be quite dynamic and experience extreme conditions such as low oxygen content, radiation (gamma and UV), pH and

Haloarchaea are salt-loving halophilic microorganism’s that inhabit marine environments, sea water, salterns, and lakes. The resistance of haloarchaea to physical extremities that challenge organismic survival is ubiquitous.
