From briquetage to salinas in protohistoric Central Italy
IpoTESI di Preistoria, 2022 In this paper we outline a novel interdisciplinary field methodology that we will use in our research project `Salt and Power, Early States, Rome and Resource Control, funded by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO) and based at the ...

Determining virus-host interactions and glycerol metabolism profiles in geographically diverse solar salterns with metagenomics [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Solar salterns are excellent model ecosystems for studying virus-microbial interactions because of their low microbial diversity, environmental stability, and high viral density.

Origin and genetic diversity of diploid parthenogenetic Artemia in Eurasia [PDF]
, 2013 There is wide interest in understanding how genetic diversity is generated and maintained in parthenogenetic lineages, as it will help clarify the debate of the evolution and maintenance of sexual reproduction.

Virioplankton Community Structure in Tunisian Solar Salterns [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012 ABSTRACT The microbial community inhabiting Sfax solar salterns on the east coast of Tunisia has been studied by means of different molecular and culture-dependent tools that have unveiled the presence of novel microbial groups as well as a community structure different from that of other coastal hypersaline environments. We have

Heterotrophic Protists in Hypersaline Microbial Mats and Deep Hypersaline Basin Water Columns
Life, 2013 Although hypersaline environments pose challenges to life because of the low water content (water activity), many such habitats appear to support eukaryotic microbes.
