Genome Sequence of the Photoarsenotrophic Bacterium Ectothiorhodospira sp. Strain BSL-9, Isolated from a Hypersaline Alkaline Arsenic-Rich Extreme Environment. [PDF]
, 2016 The full genome sequence of Ectothiorhodospira sp. strain BSL-9 is reported here. This purple sulfur bacterium encodes an arxA-type arsenite oxidase within the arxB2AB1CD gene island and is capable of carrying out "photoarsenotrophy" anoxygenic ...

Bacterial Communities Along Environmental Gradients in Tropical Soda Lakes [PDF]
Microbial Ecology, 2022 Abstract Soda lakes environment is known to be variable and can have distinct differences according to geographical location. In this study, we investigated the effect of different environmental conditions of six adjacent soda lakes on bacterial communities and their functioning using a metagenomic approach combined with flow cytometry and ...

The soda lakes of Nhecolândia: A conservation opportunity for the Pantanal wetlands
Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation, 2019 The Pantanal is the most conserved biome in Brazil and among the last wild refuges in South America, but intensification of agriculture and other land use changes present challenges for protecting this exceptionally biodiverse wetland ecosystem.
