Ecological and Geographical Analysis of Ground Beetles of Intrazonal Biotopes of the Southeastern Pre-caucasus

Наука. Инновации. Технологии
In the steppe zone of the Southeastern Pre-Caucasus, mainly on light chestnut soils, salt marshes are widespread. They are inhabited by a very characteristic and peculiar fauna of ground beetles, associated in their development with saline soils. However,

Polyhydroxyalkanoate Biosynthesis at the Edge of Water Activitiy-Haloarchaea as Biopolyester Factories

Bioengineering, 2019
Haloarchaea, the extremely halophilic branch of the Archaea domain, encompass a steadily increasing number of genera and associated species which accumulate polyhydroxyalkanoate biopolyesters in their cytoplasm.

Soil Bacterial Communities as Indicators of Anthropogenic Impact: Insights from an Early Medieval Settlement Pit Beneath the Church of Golmsdorf (Germany)

Applied Sciences
Soil samples obtained during an archaeological investigation accompanying renovation works on the village church of Golmsdorf were analyzed for the composition of soil bacterial communities using 16S rRNA sequencing. The bacterial composition of an early

Ecological significance of newly recorded halophilic Pharyngomonas kirbyi from two Korean solar salterns

Journal of Ecology and Environment
Background: Hypersaline environments (> 40 practical salinity units [PSU]) represent some of the most extreme conditions on Earth, supporting a variety of halophilic and halotolerant bacteria, archaea, and protists.

The LuxS/AI-2 quorum sensing system regulates osmotic adaptation, motility, and type VI secretion system in Halomonas elongata

Frontiers in Microbiology
As a widespread quorum sensing (QS) system in bacteria, the LuxS/AI-2 QS system can coordinate bacterial group behaviors to adapt to diverse environments. However, its roles in halophiles remain largely unexplored.
