Nitrogen metabolism in haloarchaea [PDF]
Saline Systems, 2008 The nitrogen cycle (N-cycle), principally supported by prokaryotes, involves different redox reactions mainly focused on assimilatory purposes or respiratory processes for energy conservation. As the N-cycle has important environmental implications, this biogeochemical cycle has become a major research topic during the last few years. However, although

Haloglomus irregulare gen. nov., sp. nov., a New Halophilic Archaeon Isolated from a Marine Saltern [PDF]
, 2020 A halophilic archaeal strain, designated F16-60T, was isolated from Isla Cristina marine saltern in Huelva, Spain. Cells were pleomorphic, irregular, non-motile, and Gram-stain-negative. It produced red-pigmented colonies on agar plates.

Searching for species in haloarchaea [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007 Prokaryotic (bacterial and archaeal) species definitions and the biological concepts that underpin them entail clustering (cohesion) among individuals, in terms of genome content and gene sequence similarity. Homologous recombination can maintain gene sequence similarity within, while permitting divergence between, clusters and is thus the

Growth Phase Dependent Cell Shape of Haloarcula
Microorganisms, 2021 Several haloarchaea are reported to be pleomorphic, while others exhibit remarkable shapes, such as squares. Recently, Haloferax volcanii was found to alter its morphology during growth.

Sizing chromosomes and megaplasmids in haloarchaea [PDF]
Microbiology, 1996 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. From

Responses of Haloarchaea to Simulated Microgravity [PDF]
Astrobiology, 2011 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) are usually embedded
