Draft genome sequence of Halorubrum tropicale strain V5, a novel halophilic archaeon isolated from the solar salterns of Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico [PDF]

Genomics Data, 2016
The genus Halorubrum is a member of the family Halobacteriaceae which currently has the highest number of described species (31) of all the haloarchaea.

Halocatena pleomorpha gen. nov. sp. nov., an extremely halophilic archaeon of family Halobacteriaceae isolated from saltpan soil

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2020
A novel archaeal strain designated as SPP-AMP-1T was isolated from saltpan soil, using the serial dilution method on a halophilic archaeal medium supplemented with ampicillin. Cells were both rod-shaped and pleomorphic in nature, non-motile, unable to produce acid from a variety of sugars or grow anaerobically with different substrates (l-arginine) and

Identification of microorganism belonging to the Halobacteriaceae family in the salt mine of Zipaquirá, Cundinamarca, Colombia

Acta Biológica Colombiana, 2004
This study was designed to identified halophytus microorganisms on samples from the salt mines of Zipaquirá, Colombia. We identified two representative genre Halobacterium sp. and Halococcus sp. which grew at an optimal NaCl concentration of 2.5 M.

Assessment of 16S rRNA Gene-Based Phylogenetic Diversity of Archaeal Communities in Halite-Crystal Salts Processed from Natural Saharan Saline Systems of Southern Tunisia

Biology, 2021
A thorough assessment of the phylogenetic diversity and community structure of halophilic archaea from three halite-crystal salts, processed from two separated saline systems of Southern Tunisia has been performed using culture dependent and independent ...

A Spotlight on Archaea in Humans, Livestock and Poultry: A Review. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
The microbiota includes prokaryotes (archaea and bacteria) and eukaryotes. Archaea are single‐celled prokaryotes and essential part of gut microbiome. Researches on archaea in ruminants and humans are more than mono‐gastric. The low abundance of archaea in the gut depends on the method used (metagenomics or meta‐transcriptomic) and age of people or ...

The seminal plasma microbiome of men with testicular germ cell tumours described by small RNA sequencing

Andrology, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 756-769, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Background It has been estimated that microorganisms are involved in the pathogenesis of approximately 20% of all cancers. Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common type of malignancy in young men and arise from the precursor cell, germ cell neoplasia in situ (GCNIS).

Differential rRNA gene metabarcoding of prokaryotic consortia in desert athalassohaline and thalassohaline brines

Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2022
Culture-independent molecular study presented the first exploring and evaluation of prokaryotic communities in two desert brines; the athalassohaline Lake “Aghormy”, Siwa Oasis, Western Desert of Egypt, and the thalassohaline saltern “Sebeaka Sabkha ...

Adaptive genetic traits in pelagic freshwater microbes

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 25, Issue 3, Page 606-641, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Pelagic microbes have adopted distinct strategies to inhabit the pelagial of lakes and oceans and can be broadly categorized in two groups: free‐living, specialized oligotrophs and patch‐associated generalists or copiotrophs. In this review, we aim to identify genomic traits that enable pelagic freshwater microbes to thrive in their habitat ...

Experimental evolution of environmental tolerance, acclimation, and physiological plasticity in a randomly fluctuating environment

Evolution Letters, Volume 6, Issue 6, Page 522-536, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Environmental tolerance curves, representing absolute fitness against the environment, are an empirical assessment of the fundamental niche, and emerge from the phenotypic plasticity of underlying phenotypic traits. Dynamic plastic responses of these traits can lead to acclimation effects, whereby recent past environments impact current ...

Pleistocene glacial and interglacial ecosystems inferred from ancient DNA analyses of permafrost sediments from Batagay megaslump, East Siberia

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1265-1283, November 2022., 2022
As the past is the key to the future, to understand community transformations and ecological interactions, we reconstructed ecosystem‐wide biotic composition (from viruses to megaherbivores) between glacials and interglacials from the Middle and Late Pleistocene at the Batagay megaslump, east Siberia.
