Microbial diversity in Maras salterns, a hypersaline environment in the Peruvian Andes [PDF]

, 2006
Maras salterns are located 3,380 m above sea level in the Peruvian Andes. These salterns consist of more than 3,000 little ponds which are not interconnected and act as crystallizers where salt precipitates.

Solar salterns as model systems to study the units of bacterial diversity that matter for ecosystem functioning [PDF]

, 2022
Microbial communities often harbor overwhelming species and gene diversity, making it challenging to determine the important units to study this diversity. We argue that the reduced, and thus tractable, microbial diversity of manmade salterns provides an

Microbial diversity and function in the rhizosphere microbiome: Driving forces and monitoring approaches

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 8, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract As an ecological unit, the rhizosphere microbiome preserves an enormous and largely unexplored diversity of microbes that play essential roles in plant health and soil functions. Omics technologies encompassing high‐throughput approaches such as metagenomics, metatranscriptomics, and metaproteomics provide helpful tools to unravel the ...

Biological and physical modification of carbonate system parameters along the salinity gradient in shallow hypersaline solar salterns in Trapani, Italy [PDF]

, 2017
We investigated changes in the chemical characteristics of evaporating seawater under the influence of microbial activity by conducting geochemical analyses of the brines and evaporite sediments collected from solar salterns in Trapani, Italy.

Heterotrophic Protists in Hypersaline Microbial Mats and Deep Hypersaline Basin Water Columns

Life, 2013
Although hypersaline environments pose challenges to life because of the low water content (water activity), many such habitats appear to support eukaryotic microbes.

Isolation of Halophilic and Halotolerant Bacterial Strains, Screening for Bioactive Compounds and Characterisation of Metabolites Produced by Pseudoalteromonas sp. ASV78

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
A collection of 150 bacterial isolates from a continental saltern dominated by Pseudomonadota revealed 20 antimicrobial producers and 14 isolates with emulsifying and surface tension reducing properties. The strain ASV78 produces pentabromopseudilin and bromophene, which are active against Gram‐positive pathogens, as well as a glycolipid‐type ...

The role of refluxing deep hypersaline brines and evaporite precipitation dynamics in the Castile Formation and marginal carbonate strata (Delaware Basin, USA)

The Depositional Record, Volume 11, Issue 3, Page 829-856, June 2025.
The Upper Permian Castile Formation of the Delaware Basin, a 515.3 m (1690.6 ft) thick deep‐water evaporitic sequence dominated by anhydrite and halite, is the focus of this study. This study's sedimentological and geochemical analysis of cores from the basin's centre and margin reveals that dynamic reflux of deep hypersaline brines significantly ...

Exploring Microbiological Dynamics in a Salt Cavern for Potential Hydrogen Storage Use

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 2, April 2025.
Hydrogen storage in subsurface salt caverns is vital for the energy transition. These caverns are not sterile, as they contain a diverse microbial world. Our research found Bacteria and Archaea thriving on hydrogen and other nutrients in this extreme environment.
