Yeast diversity in hypersaline habitats [PDF]
FEMS 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).

Functional Gene Expression in Shark Bay Hypersaline Microbial Mats: Adaptive Responses
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Microbial mat communities possess extensive taxonomic and functional diversity, which drive high metabolic rates and rapid cycling of major elements.

mBio, 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 ...

mSphere, 2019 Bacteria of the phylum Verrucomicrobia are prevalent and are particularly common in soil and freshwater environments. Their cosmopolitan distribution and reported capacity for polysaccharide degradation suggests members of Verrucomicrobia are important ...

Viral community composition of hypersaline lakes [PDF]
Virus Evolution, 2023 AbstractDespite their widespread distribution and remarkable antiquity no RNA viruses definitively associated with the domain Archaea have been identified. In contrast, 17 families of DNA viruses are known to infect archaea. In an attempt to uncover more of the elusive archaeal virosphere, we investigated the metatranscriptomes of hypersaline lakes ...

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2019 In the world's largest hypersaline lagoon Bay Sivash, its ecosystem twice transformed from a previous state to a new one due to human intervention. Before the North Crimean Canal construction, it was hypersaline (average salinity of 140 g l−1). The canal

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Solar salterns were placed along the coast and were frequently left unattended after use. While many studies have isolated and identified microorganisms from hypersaline environments, their role and adaptation mechanisms are still unclear.

Biogeochemical Cycling in Globally Distributed Hypersaline Environments [PDF]
, 2023 Studying extremophiles allows the characterisation of the boundaries of life on Earth and the identification of metabolic processes that fuel biogeochemical cycling under extreme conditions.
