Low-pass sequencing for microbial comparative genomics
BMC Genomics, 2004 Background We studied four extremely halophilic archaea by low-pass shotgun sequencing: (1) the metabolically versatile Haloarcula marismortui; (2) the non-pigmented Natrialba asiatica; (3) the psychrophile Halorubrum lacusprofundi and (4) the Dead Sea ...

Light-Dependent Expression of Four Cryptic Archaeal Circadian Gene Homologs
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Circadian rhythms are important biological signals that have been found in almost all major groups of life from bacteria to man, yet it remains unclear if any members of the second major prokaryotic domain of life, the Archaea, also possess a biological ...

Halotolerant Ability and α-Amylase Activity of Some Saltwater Fungal Isolates [PDF]
, 2013 Four halotolerant fungal isolates originating from the saltwater Lake Urmia in Iran were selected during a screening program for salt resistance and α-amylase activity. The isolates were identified based on sequencing the ITS region and a part of the β-

Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 2, February 2026.ABSTRACT Produced water (PW) is the largest and most complex waste stream generated during oil and gas production, posing significant environmental, operational, and regulatory challenges due to its high salinity, dispersed hydrocarbons, toxic organics, heavy metals, and naturally occurring radioactive materials. Although numerous studies have reviewed

Extracellular DNA metabolism in Haloferax volcanii
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Extracellular DNA is found in all environments and is a dynamic component of the micro-bial ecosystem. Microbial cells produce and interact with extracellular DNA through many endogenous mechanisms.

A Taxonomic Study of Heterotrophic Halophilic and Non- halophilic Bacteria from a Solar Saltern [PDF]
, 1987 A total of 564 strains of heterotrophic non-halophilic, marine, moderately halophilic and extremely halophilic bacteria was isolated from a saltern located near Huelva, SW Spain, facing the Atlantic Ocean.

Fructose metabolism in Chromohalobacter salexigens: interplay between the Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas and Entner–Doudoroff pathways [PDF]
, 2019 Background The halophilic bacterium Chromohalobacter salexigens metabolizes glucose exclusively through the Entner–Doudoroff (ED) pathway, an adaptation which results in inefficient growth, with significant carbon overflow, especially at low salinity ...

Extreme Salinity Change Governs Microbial Community Assembly and Interactions
Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.Along the Coorong Lagoon's extreme salinity gradient, hypersalinity deterministically enriches halophilic specialists and reorganises sediment microbial networks. Network complexity peaks at salinity extremes, revealing pivotal ecological trade‐offs that will steer nutrient cycling and lagoon resilience as coastal wetland salinisation accelerates ...
