Ectoine degradation pathway in halotolerant methylotrophs.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
BACKGROUND:Microorganisms living in saline environments are forced to regulate turgor via the synthesis of organic osmoprotective compounds. Microbial adaptation to fluctuations in external salinity includes degradation of compatible solutes.

Haloadaptation: insights from comparative modeling studies between halotolerant and non-halotolerant dehalogenases

open access: yesJournal of Biomolecular Structure and Dynamics, 2019
Halophiles are extremophilic microorganisms that grow optimally at high salt concentrations by producing a myriad of equally halotolerant enzymes. Structural haloadaptation of these enzymes adept to thriving under high-salt environments, though are not fully understood.

Halalophilc and halotolerant fungi in cultivated dessert and salt marsh soils from Egypt [PDF]

open access: yesActa Mycologica, 2014
One hundred halophilic and halotolerant species in addition to 3 varieties belonging to 27 genera were collccted from 25 samples of cultivated desert and saline soils from different habitats in Egypt on 5-25%. NaCl-Czapek's agar at 28°C(±2°C>.

Halophilic & Halotolerant Prokaryotes in Humans

open access: yesFuture Microbiology, 2018
Halophilic prokaryotes are described as microorganisms living in hypersaline environments. Here, we list the halotolerant and halophilic bacteria which have been isolated in humans. Of the 52 halophilic prokaryotes, 32 (61.54%) were moderately halophilic, 17 (32.69%) were slightly halophilic and three (5.76%) were extremely halophilic prokaryotes.

The Plant Growth-Promoting Potential of Halotolerant Bacteria Is Not Phylogenetically Determined: Evidence from Two Bacillus megaterium Strains Isolated from Saline Soils Used to Grow Wheat

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
(1) Background: Increasing salinity, further potentiated by climate change and soil degradation, will jeopardize food security even more. Therefore, there is an urgent need for sustainable agricultural practices capable of maintaining high crop yields ...

Genomic adaptations of novel halotolerant bacteria from extreme North Greenland. [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiol Ecol
eary Land, northern-most Greenland, is a cold desert region whose soil microbiome remains underexplored. This is the first study to explore the halotolerant soil microbiome of this region with culture-dependent methods.

Halotolerant bacteria isolated from the soils of Indian mangrove ecosystem for metal removal and NPK enhancement

open access: yesScientific Reports
Soil salinity surge, and accumulation of heavy metals in soil, due to agricultural malpractices and natural calamities, is a growing concern worldwide. The use of bacteria for bioremediation, and the potential of halotolerant bacteria have not been fully
