Actinopolyspora saharensis sp. nov., a novel halophilic actinomycete isolated from a Saharan soil of Algeria [PDF]
A novel halophilic actinomycete, strain H32T,was isolated froma Saharan soil sample collected in El-Oued province, south Algeria. The isolate was characterized by means of polyphasic taxonomy. Optimal growth was determined to occur at 28–32°C, pH 6.0–7.0

Trophic Ecology of Solar Salterns
Multi-pond solar salterns provide a range of environments with different salinities, from that of seawater up to sodium chloride saturation and sometimes even further. The two extremes provide one of the most common habitats in the world (seawater) and one of the most extreme habitats in the world (calcium and magnesium chloride saturated brines). This

An extremely halophilic archaeon, strain ETD6, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Sfax, Tunisia. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the isolate was phylogenetically related to species of the genus Halorubrum among the family ...

Metagenomic Insights into the Phylogenetic and Metabolic Diversity of the Prokaryotic Community Dwelling in Hypersaline Soils from the Odiel Saltmarshes (SW Spain) [PDF]
Hypersaline environments encompass aquatic and terrestrial habitats. While only a limited number of studies on the microbial diversity of saline soils have been carried out, hypersaline lakes and marine salterns have been thoroughly investigated ...

Bacterial Diversity in Çamaltı Saltern, Turkey
A combination of culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches was employed to identify the bacterial diversity of Çamaltı solar saltern in Turkey. The bacterial communities of Çamaltı Saltern were analyzed by molecular techniques that included denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of 16S rRNA gene fragments PCR amplified from DNA extracted ...

Microbial Community Structure and Functional Potential Along a Hypersaline Gradient
Salinity is one of the strongest environmental drivers of microbial evolution and community composition. Here we aimed to determine the impact of salt concentrations (2.5, 7.5, and 33.2%) on the microbial community structure of reclaimed saltern ponds ...

Biodiversity loss in the genus Artemia in the Western Mediterranean Region [PDF]
Local populations extinctions depend on intrinsic factors related to the biology of species, as well as on direct threats of stochastic and/or deterministic type.

Salimicrobium salexigens sp. nov., a moderately halophilic bacterium from salted hides [PDF]
Two Gram-positive, moderately halophilic bacteria, designated strains 29CMIT and 53CMI, were isolated from salted hides. Both strains were non-motile, strictly aerobic cocci, growing in the presence of 3-25 % (w/v) NaCl (optimal growth at 7.5-12.5 % [w/v]
