Bioprospecting of haloalkaliphilic microorganisms isolated from a dried-out maar in the volcano “Hoya Rincón de Parangueo”

Nova Scientia, 2021
Halophiles can be found in hypersaline environments and they can synthesize products of industrial interest. Method: In this work, 37 bacterial strains were isolated from the sediment of a dried-out maar of the “Hoya Rincón de Parangueo” (Mexico) on ...

Characterisation of organic matter formed in hypersaline carbonate/evaporite environments

, 2001
Sediments deposited under hypersaline conditions, particularly those laid down in the transition zone between marine carbonates and evaporites, are increasingly recognised as a potential source for oil.

Methanogens and methanogenesis in hypersaline environments

, 2010
Methanogenesis in hypersaline environments is determined by redox potential and permanency of anaerobic conditions, and by the concentration of other terminal electron acceptors, particularly sulfate, because sulfate-reducing bacteria have a greater ...

The first metazoa living in permanently anoxic conditions [PDF]

, 2010
Background Several unicellular organisms (prokaryotes and protozoa) can live under permanently anoxic conditions. Although a few metazoans can survive temporarily in the absence of oxygen, it is believed that multi-cellular organisms cannot spend their ...

Ecological significance of newly recorded halophilic Pharyngomonas kirbyi from two Korean solar salterns

Journal of Ecology and Environment
Background: Hypersaline environments (> 40 practical salinity units [PSU]) represent some of the most extreme conditions on Earth, supporting a variety of halophilic and halotolerant bacteria, archaea, and protists.

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 ...

Land birds on atolls: diversity, origin, and function

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
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.
