Genome‐scale insights into metabolic streamlining and photosynthetic energy balance in the extremophile green alga Picocystis salinarum (Picocystophyceae, Chlorophyta)

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Picocystis salinarum is an early‐diverging chlorophyte and the sole described member of the Picocystophyceae, frequently dominating hypersaline and alkaline lakes despite extreme physicochemical constraints. To elucidate the genomic foundations of its ecological success, we generated a fully annotated, chromosome‐scale nuclear genome assembly ...

Identifying knowledge gaps in hypersaline systems supporting the global electrical transition: invertebrate community structure in salars from the lithium triangle [PDF]

PeerJ
Following decades of mining impacts, South America’s hypersaline wetlands (salars) face increasing threats from lithium extraction to support global decarbonisation.

Duckweeds under salt stress: a meta‐analysis of growth inhibition in relation to morphological and physiological traits and a systematic review of molecular responses

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Salinity reduces duckweed growth responses. Summary Salinity is one of the main environmental factors limiting the performance of duckweeds and despite growing ecological and biotechnological interest in these macrophytes, there is a lack of quantitative analyses of their responses to sodium chloride.

Establishment of the blue crab Callinectes sapidus (Rathbun, 1896) in a Mediterranean hypersaline basin: evidence of ecological plasticity and range expansion [PDF]

NeoBiota
A 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.

Nursery pot size, not planting density, affects vegetation performance in a restored semi‐arid wetland

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Coastal wetland restoration often involves planting nursery‐grown potted plants to accelerate vegetation development, particularly when stressful conditions or insufficient source material inhibit natural recruitment. Under these conditions, planting more densely or larger, more developed plants may increase vegetation survival ...

Marine Fungi: Biotechnological Perspectives from Deep-Hypersaline Anoxic Basins

Diversity, 2019
Deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs) are one of the most hostile environments on Earth. Even though DHABs have hypersaline conditions, anoxia and high hydrostatic pressure, they host incredible microbial biodiversity.

Ophiuroids discovered in the middle triassic hypersaline environment. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Echinoderms have long been considered to be one of the animal phyla that is strictly marine. However, there is growing evidence that some recent species may live in either brackish or hypersaline environments.

Early development of anoxia prior to the main euxinic phase of the Jenkyns Event on the margin of the Western Tethys (Sachrang Basin, Eastern Alps)

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although the global expansion of oxygen‐depleted marine environments during the Early Toarcian Jenkyns Event (or Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event) is primarily inferred from successions in the NW European epicontinental basins, the timing of the expansion of anoxia in Tethyan basins, where hydrography potentially played a minor role, is poorly ...

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

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 ...

Phylogeography, salinity adaptations and metabolic potential of the Candidate Division KB1 Bacteria based on a partial single cell genome.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs) and other hypersaline environments contain abundant and diverse microbial life that has adapted to these extreme conditions.
