The metavirome of a hypersaline environment

Environmental Microbiology, 2010
Summary Hypersaline environments harbour the highest number of virus‐like particles reported for planktonic systems. However, very little is known about the genomic diversity of these virus assemblages since most of the knowledge on halophages is based on the analysis of a few isolates infecting strains of ...

Hypersaline Lake Urmia: a potential hotspot for microbial genomic variation [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Lake Urmia located in Iran is a hypersaline environment with a salinity of about 27% (w/v). Metagenomic analyses of water samples collected from six locations in the lake exhibited a microbial community dominated by representatives of the family ...

Circulation and Stratification Changes in a Hypersaline Estuary Due to Mean Sea Level Rise

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Hypersaline Hamelin Pool, with mean salinity >65, is located in Shark Bay, Western Australia. The high salinity has reduced its biodiversity, but it is home to a diverse assemblage of modern marine stromatolites.

Microbial Diversity in a Hypersaline Sulfate Lake: A Terrestrial Analog of Ancient Mars [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Life can persist under severe osmotic stress and low water activity in hypersaline environments. On Mars, evidence for the past presence of saline bodies of water is prevalent and resulted in the widespread deposition of sulfate and chloride salts.

Light cues drive community-wide transcriptional shifts in the hypersaline South Bay Salt Works [PDF]

Communications Biology
The transition from day to night brings sweeping change to both environments and the organisms within them. Diel shifts in gene expression have been documented across all domains of life but remain understudied in microbial communities, particularly ...

Spatio-Temporal Variation of the Bacterial Communities along a Salinity Gradient within a Thalassohaline Environment (Saline di Tarquinia Salterns, Italy)

Molecules, 2021
The “Saline di Tarquinia” salterns have been scarcely investigated regarding their microbiological aspects. This work studied the structure and composition of their bacterial communities along the salinity gradient (from the nearby sea through different ...

Biodegradation of alicyclic amines by a newly isolated hypersaline tolerant strain Paenarthrobacter sp. TYUT067

Water Science and Technology, 2021
Alicyclic amines are widely used in several types of industries, and considerable attention has been devoted to possible environmental pollution by alicyclic amines in hypersaline industrial wastewater. In this study, a new hypersaline tolerant bacterial

Response to Hypersalinity of Four Halophytes Growing in Hydroponic Floating Systems: Prospects in the Phytomanagement of High Saline Wastewaters and Extreme Environments

Plants, 2023
Hypersaline environments occur naturally worldwide in arid and semiarid regions or in artificial areas where the discharge of highly saline wastewaters, such as produced water (PW) from oil and gas industrial setups, has concentrated salt (NaCl ...

Analysis of Microbial Abundances in Biofilms and Water in Hypersaline Environments with Different NaCl Levels

Journal of Experimental Life Science, 2023
Biofilm is the dominant habitat for aquatic microbes that can grow in various aquatic conditions, including environments with extreme conditions. One of the extreme conditions found in aquatic ecosystems is a hypersaline environment.

Denitrification in hypersaline and coastal environments

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2023
Abstract As the association of denitrification with global warming and nitrogen removal from ecosystems has gained attention in recent decades, numerous studies have examined denitrification rates and the distribution of denitrifiers across different environments.
