Phytoplankton assemblage of a solar saltern in Port Fouad, Egypt [PDF]
AbstractThe present study is the first investigation of the phytoplankton community in one of Egypt’s saltworks. The phytoplankton composition and distribution in five ponds of increasing salinity were investigated in the solar saltern of Port Fouad.

Archaeal viruses multiply: temporal screening in a solar saltern. [PDF]
Hypersaline environments around the world are dominated by archaea and their viruses. To date, very little is known about these viruses and their interaction with the host strains when compared to bacterial and eukaryotic viruses. We performed the first culture-dependent temporal screening of haloarchaeal viruses and their hosts in the saltern of ...

Extremely halophilic brine community manipulation shows higher robustness of microbiomes inhabiting human-driven solar saltern than naturally driven lake. [PDF]
Hypersaline ecosystems display taxonomically similar assemblages with low diversities and highly dense accompanying viromes. The ecological implications of viral infection on natural microbial populations remain poorly understood, especially at finer ...

Virgibacillus campisalis sp. nov., from a marine solar saltern [PDF]
A Gram-staining-variable, motile, endospore-forming and rod-shaped bacterial strain, IDS-20T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Korea and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic investigation. Strain IDS-20T grew optimally at 37 °C, at pH 7.5–8.0 and in the presence of 4–5 % (w/v) NaCl.

Echinicola jeungdonensis sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern
A non-motile and yellow-pigmented bacterium, designated strain HMD3054T, was isolated from a solar saltern in Jeungdo, Republic of Korea. The major fatty acids of strain HMD3054T were iso-C15 : 0 (31.4 %), anteiso-C15 : 0 (23.5 %), iso-C17 : 0 3-OH (14.2 %), summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c; 6.9 %) and summed feature 9 ...

Salinisphaera orenii sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern
A taxonomic study was performed on two isolates, designated strains MK-B5Tand MK-B7, isolated from sediment of a solar saltern pond in Gomso Bay, Republic of Korea. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strains MK-B5Tand MK-B7 belong to theGammaproteobacteriaand are related most closely toSalinisphaera shabanensisJCM 11575T( = E1L3AT)

Characterization of the Proteolytic Activity of a Halophilic Aspergillus reticulatus Strain SK1-1 Isolated from a Solar Saltern. [PDF]
Salterns are hypersaline environments that are inhabited by diverse halophilic microorganisms, including fungi. In this study, we isolated a fungal strain SK1-1 from a saltern in the Republic of Korea, which was identified as Asperillus reticulatus. This
