Transcriptomic profiles of Dunaliella salina in response to hypersaline stress

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background Dunaliella salina is a good model organism for studying salt stress. In order to have a global understanding of the expression profiles of Dunaliella salina in response to hypersaline stress, we performed quantitative transcriptomic analysis ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 2920-2942, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Oceanic islands are global hotspots of avian biodiversity and endemism. Their isolation and distinct environmental conditions have uniquely shaped the evolutionary trajectories of island birds, while, in turn, land bird communities have become critical providers of ecological functions to island ecosystems.

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 15, Page 8992-9006, December 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Seed Storage Conditions for Zostera muelleri Restoration: Effects of Temperature, Salinity and Sterilisation on Seed Contamination, Viability and Seedling Emergence

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 4, December 2026.
The decline of seagrass meadows is a continuing global concern, and seed‐based restoration provides a scalable approach to recovering lost and degraded meadows. Such approaches require large quantities of seed to be collected, processed, and often stored for months until deployment.

Environmental Contaminant Accumulation in Freshwater Turtles Inhabiting Three Rivers of the Permian Basin, New Mexico, USA

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 12, Page 1513-1526, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles are valuable sentinels of aquatic systems due to their long lifespans and resilience in environments impacted by contaminants. The Permian Basin, dominated by the oil and gas sector, spans western Texas and southeastern New Mexico, USA, including the Pecos River and its tributaries, the Delaware and Black Rivers.

Near‐infrared confocal imaging reveals the spatial organisation of far‐red photosynthesis in Shark Bay microbial mats and Halomicronema sp.

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, Volume 304, Issue 3, Page 277-300, December 2026.
Abstract Far‐red light (FRL) cyanobacteria occupy spectrally filtered habitats where visible wavelengths are depleted but far‐red radiation persists. Shark Bay (Western Australia) stromatolitic microbial mats provide such a habitat, containing subsurface cyanobacterial communities in which chlorophyll d/f (Chl d/f)‐containing phototrophs coexist with ...

Uptake and turnover of acetate in hypersaline environments [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 1995
Abstract Acetate uptake and turnover rates were determined for the heterotrophic community in hypersaline environments (saltern crystallizer ponds, the Dead Sea) dominated by halpphilic Archaea. Acetate was formed from glycerol, which is potentially the major available carbon source for natural communities of halophilic Archaea.

Microalgae Proteins for Sustainable Food Systems: A Comprehensive Review of Advanced Extraction Technologies, Functional Performance, Bioactivity, and Industrial Translation

open access: yesFood Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2026.
Microalgae proteins combine high nutritional value with low environmental impact. Advanced extraction technologies, integrated biorefineries, and AI‐driven optimization enhance protein recovery, functionality, and bioactivity, enabling applications in foods, nutraceuticals, feed, and sustainable circular bioeconomy systems.

Impact of water quality on the fish community in wetlands of Yucatan, Mexico

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
Abstract This study examined how water quality affects the structure and function of fish communities in two coastal wetlands in Yucatán, Mexico. The research was prompted by concerns about the impact of human activities on these biodiverse ecosystems.

Pyruvate: A key Nutrient in Hypersaline Environments? [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2015
Some of the most commonly occurring but difficult to isolate halophilic prokaryotes, Archaea as well as Bacteria, require or prefer pyruvate as carbon and energy source. The most efficient media for the enumeration and isolation of heterotrophic prokaryotes from natural environments, from freshwater to hypersaline, including the widely used R2A agar ...
