Microbial communities of the Mediterranean rocky shore: ecology and biotechnological potential of the sea‐land transition

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 12, Issue 6, Page 1359-1370, November 2019., 2019
Microbial communities from harsh environments hold great promise as sources of biotechnologically‐relevant strains and compounds. In the present work, we have characterized the microorganisms from the supralittoral and splash zone in three different rocky locations of the Western Mediterranean coast, a tough environment characterised by high levels of ...

A comparison of rpoB and 16S rRNA as markers in pyrosequencing studies of bacterial diversity [PDF]

, 2012
Background: The 16S rRNA gene is the gold standard in molecular surveys of bacterial and archaeal diversity, but it has the disadvantages that it is often multiple-copy, has little resolution below the species level and cannot be readily interpreted in ...

Metabolic Engineered Biocatalyst: A Solution for PLA Based Problems

International Journal of Biomaterials, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable thermoplastic polyester. In 2010, PLA became the second highest consumed bioplastic in the world due to its wide application. Conventionally, PLA is produced by direct condensation of lactic acid monomer and ring opening polymerization of lactide, resulting in lower molecular weight and lesser strength of ...

Diversity and Niche of Archaea in Bioremediation

Archaea, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
Bioremediation is the use of microorganisms for the degradation or removal of contaminants. Most bioremediation research has focused on processes performed by the domain Bacteria; however, Archaea are known to play important roles in many situations.

Halopelagius longus sp. nov., a member of the family Halobacteriaceae isolated from a salt mine, and emended description of the genus Halopelagius [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2013
A thermotolerant, extremely halophilic archaeon, BC12-B1T, was isolated from a salt mine in Baicheng county, Xinjiang province, China. Colonies were off-white–grey. The cells stained Gram-negative, were motile and irregularly long-rod-shaped (variation in both width and length) with abundant gas vesicles.

The Deep-Sea Microbial Community from the Amazonian Basin Associated with Oil Degradation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
One consequence of oil production is the possibility of unplanned accidental oil spills; therefore, it is important to evaluate the potential of indigenous microorganisms (both prokaryotes and eukaryotes) from different oceanic basins to degrade oil. The

Taxonomy of the family Halobacteriaceae and the description of two newgenera Halorubrobacterium and Natrialba.

The Journal of General and Applied Microbiology, 1995
Complete sequences of 16S rRNA encoding genes from extreme halophiles Halobacterium saccharovorum, Halobacterium lacusprofundi, and Halobacterium distributum were determined. The polar lipids, particularly the glycolipids, of these and 20 other isolates were also analyzed.

Unusually High Archaeal Diversity in a Crystallizer Pond, Pomorie Salterns, Bulgaria, Revealed by Phylogenetic Analysis

Archaea, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Recent studies on archaeal diversity in few salterns have revealed heterogeneity between sites and unique structures of separate places that hinder drawing of generalized conclusions. Investigations on the archaeal community composition in P18, the biggest crystallizer pond in Pomorie salterns (PS) (34% salinity), demonstrated unusually high number of ...
