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

Determining virus-host interactions and glycerol metabolism profiles in geographically diverse solar salterns with metagenomics [PDF]
Solar salterns are excellent model ecosystems for studying virus-microbial interactions because of their low microbial diversity, environmental stability, and high viral density.

Eukaryotic algal community composition in tropical environments from solar salterns to the open sea
Tropical environments with unique abiotic and biotic factors—such as salt ponds, mangroves, and coral reefs—are often in close proximity. The heterogeneity of these environments is reflected in community shifts over short distances, resulting in high ...

Fungal Diversity and Composition of the Continental Solar Saltern in Añana Salt Valley (Spain)
The Añana Salt Valley in Spain is an active continental solar saltern formed 220 million years ago. To date, no fungal genomic studies of continental salterns have been published, although DNA metabarcoding has recently expanded researchers’ ability to ...

Isolation and Characterization of a Moderately Halophilic Methanogen from a Solar Saltern [PDF]
A moderately halophilic methanogenic bacterium was enriched with trimethylamine and isolated from the sediment of a solar salt pond (total dissolved solids of pond water, 250 g/liter; pH 7.5). The isolate (strain SF1, DSM 3243) was an irregular coccus which stained gram negative, with a diameter of 1 μm and a thin monolayered cell wall.

INVESTIGATING THE MICROBIOTA OF SOLAR SALTERN OF MULUND, MUMBAI, INDIA
Solar salterns, located in tropical and subtropical areas worldwide, are artificial shallow ponds for the production ofhalite (NaCl) from seawater. They are often built as multipond systems. Multi-pond solar salterns have been widespreadenvironments for studies on halophilic microorganisms.
