Isolation and salt tolerance of halophilic fungi from mangroves and solar salterns in Goa - India [PDF]
164-172High salt tolerant fungal genera were isolated from mangroves and solar salterns of Goa. These belonged mainly to the genus Aspergillus; some Penicillium and a few Eurotium and Hortaea.

Diversity of cultivable halophilic archaea and bacteria from superficial hypersaline sediments of Tunisian solar salterns [PDF]
Prokaryotes in the superficial sediments are ecologically important microorganisms that are responsible for the decomposition, mineralization and subsequent recycling of organic matter. The aim of this study was to explore the phylogenetic and functional

Diversity of microorganisms in solar salterns of Tamil Nadu, India
In this study, the diversity of prokaryotes inhabiting crystallizer ponds of three solar salterns, located along Bengal Bay in Tamil Nadu, India was examined. Unlike other salterns studied the Tamil Nadu salterns are fed by hypersaline spring water mixed with seawater and led to the ponds from bore wells.

Conventional and innovative approaches to black fungi control for stone heritage preservation
Abstract Black Meristematic Fungi (BMF) are characterized by a thick melanized cell wall and an isodiametric cellular expansion. BMF represent one of the most damaging groups of microorganisms causing the deterioration of outdoor exposed stone monuments mainly due to the formation of dark spots and patches leading to the darkening of their surface ...

Alkalibacillus flavidus sp. nov., isolated from a marine solar saltern [PDF]
A Gram-stain-positive, motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, ISL-17T, was isolated from a marine solar saltern of the Yellow Sea, Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated by means of a polyphasic study. Strain ISL-17T grew optimally at pH 8.5–9.0, at 37 °C and in the presence of approximately 10 % (w/v) NaCl.

ABSTRACT Alkaline lakes are among the most bioproductive aquatic ecosystems on Earth. The factors that ultimately limit productivity in these systems can vary, but nitrogen (N) cycling in particular has been shown to be adversely affected by high salinity, evidently due to the inhibition of nitrifying bacteria (i.e., those that convert ammonic species ...

Extremely halophilic bacteria in crystallizer ponds from solar salterns. [PDF]
ABSTRACT It is generally assumed that hypersaline environments with sodium chloride concentrations close to saturation are dominated by halophilic members of the domain Archaea , while Bacteria are not considered to be relevant in this kind of environment.
