High-Up: A Remote Reservoir of Microbial Extremophiles in Central Andean Wetlands [PDF]
, 2015 The Central Andes region displays unexplored ecosystems of shallow lakes and salt flats at mean altitudes of 3700 m. Being isolated and hostile, these so-called “High-Altitude Andean Lakes” (HAAL) are pristine and have been exposed to little human ...

Metagenome sequencing of prokaryotic microbiota from two hypersaline ponds of a marine saltern in Santa Pola, Spain [PDF]
, 2013 Marine salterns are composed of several shallow ponds with a salinity gradient, from seawater to salt saturation, with gradually changing microbial populations. Here, we report the metagenome sequencing of the prokaryotic microbiota of two ponds with 13%

Salegentibacter salinarum sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern [PDF]
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SYSTEMATIC AND EVOLUTIONARY MICROBIOLOGY, 2008 A bacterial strain, ISL-4(T), comprising Gram-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped cells, was isolated from a marine solar saltern of the Yellow Sea in Korea and was subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic investigation. Phenotypically, the strain resembled members of the genus Salegentibacter.
