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.

Preservation of ATP in Hypersaline Environments [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1987 High concentrations of particulate ATP were found in the anoxic brines of the Orca Basin and East Flower Garden, Gulf of Mexico. Other measurements indicative of growth and respiration suggested that the microbial community in the brines was inactive, but somehow the ATP associated with the cells persisted.

Hydrocarbon Biodegradation in Hypersaline Environments [PDF]
Applied 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.

Hypersalinity drives physiological and morphological changes in Limia perugiae (Poeciliidae)
Biology Open, 2016 A fundamental question in biology is how an organism's morphology and physiology are shaped by its environment. Here, we evaluate the effects of a hypersaline environment on the morphology and physiology of a population of livebearing fish in the genus ...

Hypersaline Lake Urmia: a potential hotspot for microbial genomic variation
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 ...

Biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in hypersaline environments [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2012 Literature on hydrocarbon degradation in extreme hypersaline media presents studies that point to a negative effect of salinity increase on hydrocarbonoclastic activity, while several others report an opposite tendency. Based on information available in the literature, we present a discussion on the reasons that justify these contrary results.

Anaerobic bacteria from hypersaline environments [PDF]
Microbiological Reviews, 1994 Strictly anaerobic halophiles, namely fermentative, sulfate-reducing, homoacetogenic, phototrophic, and methanogenic bacteria are involved in the oxidation of organic carbon in hypersaline environments. To date, six anaerobic fermentative genera, containing nine species, have been described. Two of them are homoacetogens.
