A Taxonomic Study of Heterotrophic Halophilic and Non- halophilic Bacteria from a Solar Saltern [PDF]

, 1987
A total of 564 strains of heterotrophic non-halophilic, marine, moderately halophilic and extremely halophilic bacteria was isolated from a saltern located near Huelva, SW Spain, facing the Atlantic Ocean.

Haloarchaeobius baliensis sp. nov., isolated from a solar saltern

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2016
A novel halophilic archaeon, designated strain 2b_61_3T, was isolated from a solar saltern in Indonesia. Cells of the strain were Gram-stain-negative, motile, pleomorphic rods that formed orange-red-pigmented colonies on solid medium. The isolate grew optimally at 42-44 °C, pH 6.5-7.0, and with 2.6 M NaCl, and MgCl2 was required for growth.

Oceanobacillus locisalsi sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2010
A Gram-stain-variable, motile, moderately halophilic bacterial strain, CHL-21T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern and its taxonomic position was investigated using a polyphasic approach. Optimal growth of strain CHL-21T occurred at 30–37 °C, at pH 7.0–7.5 and in the presence of 5–10 % (w/v) NaCl.

Selective enrichment on a wide polysaccharide spectrum allowed isolation of novel metabolic and taxonomic groups of haloarchaea from hypersaline lakes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Extremely halophilic archaea (haloarchaea) of the class Halobacteria is a dominant group of aerobic heterotrophic prokaryotic communities in salt-saturated habitats, such as salt lakes and solar salterns.

Halomicroarcula salina sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2015
Halophilic archaeal strain YGHS18T was isolated from the Yinggehai marine solar saltern near Shanya city of Hainan Province, China. Cells from the strain were observed to be pleomorphic rods, stained Gram-negative, and formed red-pigmented colonies on solid media.

Ch2, a Novel Halophilic Archaeon from an Australian Solar Saltern [PDF]

International Journal of Systematic Bacteriology, 1993
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

Distinctive Archaeal Composition of an Artisanal Crystallizer Pond and Functional Insights Into Salt-Saturated Hypersaline Environment Adaptation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Hypersaline environments represent some of the most challenging settings for life on Earth. Extremely halophilic microorganisms have been selected to colonize and thrive in these extreme environments by virtue of a broad spectrum of adaptations to ...

Community solar salt production in Goa, India [PDF]

, 2012
Traditional salt farming in Goa, India has been practised for the past 1,500 years by a few communities. Goa’s riverine estuaries, easy access to sea water and favourable climatic conditions makes salt production attractive during summer.

Airborne Halophilic and Non‐Halophilic Microbial Communities in an Underground Salt Mine Affected by Seasonal Environmental Fluctuations

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study tests seasonal controls on airborne microbes in the UNESCO‐listed Bochnia Salt Mine. In summer, relative humidity exceeded the halite deliquescence threshold, coinciding with higher NaCl aerosol and greater densities of halophilic microbes; in winter, humidity stayed below deliquescence and halophilic microbes declined at least 13‐fold while

Extreme Salinity Change Governs Microbial Community Assembly and Interactions

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Along the Coorong Lagoon's extreme salinity gradient, hypersalinity deterministically enriches halophilic specialists and reorganises sediment microbial networks. Network complexity peaks at salinity extremes, revealing pivotal ecological trade‐offs that will steer nutrient cycling and lagoon resilience as coastal wetland salinisation accelerates ...
