Phylogeography, salinity adaptations and metabolic potential of the Candidate Division KB1 Bacteria based on a partial single cell genome.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs) and other hypersaline environments contain abundant and diverse microbial life that has adapted to these extreme conditions.

An Ecological Perspective on Dolomite Formation in Great Salt Lake, Utah

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Protodolomite was detected in sediments from Great Salt Lake (GSL), Utah, United States, that have no history of elevated temperature or pressure, conditions that are thought to promote dolomitization of sedimentary carbonates. Protodolomite was abundant

Hydrocarbon Biodegradation in Hypersaline Environments [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1978
When mineral oil, hexadecane, and glutamate were added to natural samples of varying salinity (3.3 to 28.4%) from salt evaporation ponds and Great Salt Lake, Utah, rates of metabolism of these compounds decreased as salinity increased.

Genome-Wide Transcriptional Responses of Marine Nematode Litoditis marina to Hyposaline and Hypersaline Stresses

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Maintenance of osmotic homeostasis is essential for all organisms, especially for marine animals in the ocean with 3% salinity or higher. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms that how marine animals adapt to high salinity environment compared to ...

Yeast diversity in hypersaline habitats [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2005
Thus far it has been considered that hypersaline natural brines which are subjected to extreme solar heating, do not contain non-melanized yeast populations. Nevertheless we have isolated yeasts in eight different salterns worldwide, as well as from the Dead Sea, Enriquillo Lake (Dominican Republic) and the Great Salt Lake (Utah).

Active Microbial Airborne Dispersal and Biomorphs as Confounding Factors for Life Detection in the Cell-Degrading Brines of the Polyextreme Dallol Geothermal Field

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Determining the precise limits of life in polyextreme environments is challenging. Studies along gradients of polyextreme conditions in the Dallol proto-volcano area (Danakil salt desert, Ethiopia) showed the occurrence of archaea-dominated communities ...

Safe halophilic bioaugmentation in hypersaline aquaculture systems: ecological mechanisms, resistome risks, and design principles [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Hypersaline aquaculture systems are increasingly affected by organic enrichment, nutrient accumulation, and microbial instability associated with intensive production.

Eucaryotic Diversity in a Hypersaline Microbial Mat [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2008
ABSTRACT To determine the eucaryotic diversity of the hypersaline Guerrero Negro microbial mat, we amplified 18S rRNA genes from DNA extracted from this mat and constructed and analyzed clone libraries. The extent of eucaryotic diversity detected was remarkably low, only 15 species among 890 clones analyzed.

Dynamics of hypersaline coastal waters in the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The coastal waters of the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) are hypersaline (salinity ~ 37) during the dry season as a result of evaporation greatly exceeding rainfall, of shallow waters, and of the presence of numerous bays along the coast preventing rapid ...
