The advent of molecular tools in microbial ecology paved the way to exploit the diversity of microbes in extreme environments. Here, we review these tools as applied in one of the most polyextreme habitats known on our planet, namely, deep hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs), located at ca. 3000–3500 m depth in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea.

Archaeal Communities in Deep Terrestrial Subsurface Underneath the Deccan Traps, India
Archaeal community structure and potential functions within the deep, aphotic, oligotrophic, hot, igneous provinces of ∼65 Myr old basalt and its Archean granitic basement was explored through archaeal 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing from extracted ...

The transcription factors TrmB and TbsP coregulate the gluconeogenic enzyme‐coding gene gapII to influence cell lifestyle transitions in hypersaline archaea. The proposed model of regulation is shown above, and the motile‐to‐sessile transition that is indirectly influenced by this regulation is shown below.

Biotechnological Production of Polyhydroxyalkanoates: A Review on Trends and Latest Developments
Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) producers have been reported to reside at various ecological niches which are naturally or accidently exposed to high organic matter or growth limited conditions such as dairy wastes, hydrocarbon contaminated sites, pulp and paper mill wastes, agricultural wastes, activated sludges of treatment plants, rhizosphere, and ...

Salt resistance genes revealed by functional metagenomics from brines and moderate-salinity rhizosphere within a hypersaline environment [PDF]
Hypersaline environments are considered one of the most extreme habitats on earth and microorganisms have developed diverse molecular mechanisms of adaptation to withstand these conditions.

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.

Halophilic archaeal strain GX10T was isolated from the Gangxi marine solar saltern in China. Strain GX10T was observed to have pleomorphic cells that lysed in distilled water, stained Gram-negative and produced red-pigmented colonies. Strain GX10T was able to grow at 20–50 °C (optimum 37 °C), with 1.4–4.8 M NaCl (optimum 3.1 M NaCl), with 0–0.7 M MgCl2
