Trophic Ecology of Solar Salterns
, 2004 16 pages Multi-pond solar salterns provide a range of environments with different salinities, from that of seawater up to sodium chloride saturation and sometimes even further. The two extremes provide one of the most common habitats in the world (seawater) and one of the most extreme habitats in the world (calcium and magnesium chloride saturated ...

Salegentibacter salarius sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern [PDF]
International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2007 A Gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium, strain ISL-6T, phenotypically resembling members of the genus Salegentibacter, was isolated from a marine solar saltern of the Yellow Sea in Korea and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic investigation. Strain ISL-6T grew optimally at pH 7.0–8.0 and 30 °C and in the presence of 8 % (w/v) NaCl.

Conventional and innovative approaches to black fungi control for stone heritage preservation
IUBMB Life, Volume 77, Issue 3, March 2025.Abstract Black Meristematic Fungi (BMF) are characterized by a thick melanized cell wall and an isodiametric cellular expansion. BMF represent one of the most damaging groups of microorganisms causing the deterioration of outdoor exposed stone monuments mainly due to the formation of dark spots and patches leading to the darkening of their surface ...

Geobiology, Volume 23, Issue 2, March/April 2025.ABSTRACT Alkaline lakes are among the most bioproductive aquatic ecosystems on Earth. The factors that ultimately limit productivity in these systems can vary, but nitrogen (N) cycling in particular has been shown to be adversely affected by high salinity, evidently due to the inhibition of nitrifying bacteria (i.e., those that convert ammonic species ...

Taxonomic Study of Non-alkaliphilic Halococci [PDF]
, 1988 Ninety-six extremely halophilic, non-alkaliphilic cocci were isolated from several salterns in different geographical areas of Spain. These strains, together with seven reference strains of the genus Halococcus, were characterized by means of 114 ...
