A preliminary report on bacterial diversity in solar salterns located at the Gulf of Khambhat, India using 16S amplicon sequencing

Heliyon
In recent years it has become pivotal to study the community composition of an environment to understand the role of microorganisms in it. The saline soils harbour prokaryotic microbiota that adapted to high concentrations of salt and are an interesting ...

Fungal colonization of the roots of selected halophytes from Sečovlje salterns

Acta Biologica Slovenica, 2007
To reveal their mycotrophic status, we have here analysed the fungal colonisation of the roots, and the identity of these fungi, of the most abundant halophytic plant species from Sečovlje salterns (Slovenia): Aster tripolium, Limonium angustifolium and

New Cyclic Lipopeptides of the Iturin Class Produced by Saltern-Derived Bacillus sp. KCB14S006

Marine Drugs, 2016
Salterns, one of the most extreme natural hypersaline environments, are a rich source of halophilic and halotolerant microorganisms, but they remain largely underexplored ecological niches in the discovery of bioactive secondary metabolites. In continued

The effect of the application of halotolerant microorganisms on the efficiency of a pilot-scale constructed wetland for saline wastewater treatment [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2010
In order to find the optimal design characteristics of constructed wetlands for saline wastewater treatment, halotolerant microorganisms, isolated from the water of the Sečovlje salterns, were inoculated into the media of a pilot-scale constructed ...
