Light cues drive community-wide transcriptional shifts in the hypersaline South Bay Salt Works
Communications BiologyThe 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 ...

Organohalide respiration in a pristine hypersaline lake [PDF]
, 2017 Despite compiling evidence on distribution of organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) in pristine environments, there is lack of knowledge about their occurrence and potential contribution to the chlorine cycle in extreme environments such as hypersaline ...

Altered Na, K- Atpase Isoform Expression in Artemia Franciscana in Response to Hypersaline Environments [PDF]
, 2017 The Na,K-ATPase (NKA) is an essential membrane pump that helps to establish cell ion gradients, and regulate intracellular salt in many organisms.

Establishment of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus (Rathbun, 1896) in a Mediterranean hypersaline basin: evidence of ecological plasticity and range expansion [PDF]
NeoBiotaA central aspect of ecology is the understanding of how environmental factors influence species distribution, population structure, and dynamics, ultimately highlighting species’ capacity to adapt to environmental shifts.

Uptake and turnover of acetate in hypersaline environments [PDF]
FEMS 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.

Characterization of selected isolates from hypersaline lakes in Western Australia and Victoria, Australia [PDF]
, 2009 Compared to the amount of work on alkaline to neutral hypersaline environments, acidic hypersaline environments have been barely studied. Specifically, very little is known about the microbial populations present in the acid hypersaline environments of ...

Thermolytic degradation of methylmethionine and implications for its role in DMS and MeCl formation in hypersaline environments [PDF]
, 2015 Environmental context Methyl chloride and dimethyl sulfide are important atmospheric trace gases, but their biogeochemical contributions to the atmosphere are not fully understood. The amino acid derivative methyl methionine has been hypothesised to be a

Archivory in hypersaline aquatic environments : haloarchaea as a dietary source for the brine shrimp Artemia [PDF]
, 2019 Archaea have been the most overlooked and enigmatic of the three domains of life for decades. Knowledge of key ecological interactions, such as trophic links between this domain and higher level organisms, remains extremely limited.

Ergosterol biosynthesis in novel melanized fungi from hypersaline environments
Journal of Lipid Research, 2001 Halotolerant and halophilic melanized fungi were recently described in hypersaline waters. A close study of the sterol composition of such fungi, namely Hortaea werneckii, Alternaria alternata, Cladosporium sphaerospermum, Cladosporium sp., and ...
