Virioplankton Community Structure in Tunisian Solar Salterns. [PDF]
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

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 ...

Diversity of halophilic archaea in the crystallizers of an Adriatic solar saltern [PDF]
Haloarchaeal diversity in the crystallizers of Adriatic Secovlje salterns was investigated using gene fragments encoding 16S rRNA and bacteriorhodopsin as molecular markers. Screening of 180 clones from five gene libraries constructed for each gene targeted revealed 15 different 16S rRNA and 10 different bacteriorhodopsin phylotypes, indicating higher ...

Distribution of phytoplankton and artemia in the solar salterns at Tuticorin [PDF]
Salt pan ecosystem of Tuticorin was studied for the distribution of Phytoplankton in two condenser ponds in a particular station, where artemia population was very high. This was monitored for one year in two ponds. Physico chemical parameters were also studied. The population of Bacillariophyceae dominated during monsoon season. Chlorophyceae was high

Marinobacter szutsaonensis sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern [PDF]
A Gram-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, halophilic bacterial strain, NTU-104(T), was isolated from the Szutsao saltern in southern Taiwan, which was previously used as salt production field. The novel isolate grew optimally at 35-40 degrees C, at pH 7.5-8.0 and in the presence of 5 % (w/v) NaCl.

Ch2, a Novel Halophilic Archaeon from an Australian Solar Saltern [PDF]
A novel halophilic archaeon, strain Ch2, was isolated from a marine solar saltern in Geelong, Australia. The fact that this organism had a dam-methylated genome suggested that it is closely related to the taxon that includes Halobacterium saccharovorum, Halobacterium sodomense, and Halobacterium trapanicum. A sequence analysis of the 16S rRNA gene (Ch2

Genomic Survey of Carbon Monoxide Dehydrogenases Reveals Their Widespread Distribution in Marine Habitats. [PDF]
Protein sequence surveys show that nickel‐ and molybdenum/copper‐containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) are widespread in the ocean. Phylogenetic and genome context analyses reveal that marine CODHs are highly diverse in both evolutionary history and functional organisation.

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.
