Solar salterns – salt-making areas and natural habitats

Geografski vestnik
In recent decades, solar salterns in Europe have become protected natural areas. Long-term human activity has created a typical saltern ecosystem, providing habitats for numerous plant and animal species. We describe traditional salt-making using the example of the Sečovlje salterns in Slovenia, focusing on salt crystallisation areas during the 2024 ...

Exploring biosurfactant from Halobacterium jilantaiense as drug against HIV and zika virus: fabrication, characterization, cytosafety property, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Biosurfactants are surface-active molecules with unique qualities and various uses. Many microorganisms produce secondary metabolites with surface-active characteristics that serve various antiviral functions.

Elucidating metabolic pathways through genomic analysis in highly heavy metal-resistant Halobacterium salinarum strains

Heliyon
The annotated and predicted genomes of five archaeal strains (AS1, AS2, AS8, AS11 and AS19), isolated from Sfax solar saltern sediments (Tunisia) and affiliated with Halobacterium salinarum, were performed by RAST webserver (Rapid Annotation using ...

Towards estimating the number of strains that make up a natural bacterial population

Nature Communications
What a strain is and how many strains make up a natural bacterial population remain elusive concepts despite their apparent importance for assessing the role of intra-population diversity in disease emergence or response to environmental perturbations ...
