Abundant Taxa and Favorable Pathways in the Microbiome of Soda-Saline Lakes in Inner Mongolia [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Soda-saline lakes are a special type of alkaline lake in which the chloride concentration is greater than the carbonate/bicarbonate concentration. Due to the high pH and a usually higher osmotic pressure than that of a normal soda lake, the microbes may ...

Environmental Gradients and Conservation Status Determine the Structure and Carbon‐Related Metabolic Potential of the Prokaryotic Communities of Mediterranean Inland Saline Shallow Lakes [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionMediterranean inland saline lakes may play an important role in the carbon cycle due to the metabolic capacities of their prokaryotic communities. However, these lakes are not homogeneous and have different environmental characteristics.
