Colonization and dispersal patterns of the invasive American brine shrimp Artemia franciscana (Branchiopoda: Anostraca) in the Mediterranean region [PDF]
Cysts of the brine shrimp Artemia franciscana are harvested from the Great Salt Lake (GSL) and San Francisco Bay (SFB) saltworks in the USA, and marketed worldwide to provide live food for aquaculture.

New Halonotius Species Provide Genomics-Based Insights Into Cobalamin Synthesis in Haloarchaea [PDF]
Hypersaline aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems display a cosmopolitan distribution. These environments teem with microbes and harbor a plethora of prokaryotic lineages that evaded ecological characterization due to the prior inability to cultivate them ...

Is there a common water-activity limit for the three domains of life? [PDF]
Archaea and Bacteria constitute a majority of life systems on Earth but have long been considered inferior to Eukarya in terms of solute tolerance. Whereas the most halophilic prokaryotes are known for an ability to multiply at saturated NaCl (water ...

Microbiology of solar salt ponds [PDF]
Solar salt ponds are shallow ponds of brines that range in salinity from that of normal seawater (3.4 percent) through NaCl saturation. Some salterns evaporate brines to the potash stage of concentration (bitterns).

Halotolerant Ability and α-Amylase Activity of Some Saltwater Fungal Isolates [PDF]
Four halotolerant fungal isolates originating from the saltwater Lake Urmia in Iran were selected during a screening program for salt resistance and α-amylase activity. The isolates were identified based on sequencing the ITS region and a part of the β-

Salinigranum salinum sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern
An extremely halophilic archaeal strain YJ-50-S2T was isolated from Yangjiang marine solar saltern, China. Cells were pleomorphic, stained Gram-negative and formed red-pigmented colonies on agar plates. Strain YJ-50-S2T was able to grow at 25-50 °C (optimum 37 °C), with 0.9-4.8 M NaCl (optimum 2.6 M NaCl) and 0-1.0 M MgCl2 (optimum 0.03 M MgCl2), and ...

Discovery of salt-loving pleolipoviruses infecting archaea : vesicle-like virion is the key to success [PDF]
Extremophiles are found in all three domains of cellular life but especially archaea are able to withstand harsh conditions. Halophilic archaea thrive in hypersaline environments like salt lakes and salterns which have been shown to contain high ...
