| halosarcina pallida gen. nov., sp. nov., a halophilic archaeon from a low-salt, sulfide-rich spring. | a novel halophilic archaeon, strain bz256t, was isolated from zodletone spring, a sulfide- and sulfur-rich spring in south-western oklahoma, usa. cells were non-motile, non-flagellated cocci that divided along two axes, resulting in the formation of sarcina-like clusters. strain bz256t grew at salt concentrations ranging from 1.3 to 4.3 m nacl, with optimum growth at approximately 3.4 m, and required at least 1 mm mg2+ for growth. the ph range for growth was 5.0 to at least 8.5, and the temperat ... | 2008 | 18398182 |
| halopelagius inordinatus gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family halobacteriaceae isolated from a marine solar saltern. | two extremely halophilic archaea, strains ro5-2(t) and ro5-14, were isolated from rudong marine solar saltern in jiangsu, china. cells of the two strains were pleomorphic, motile and stained gram-negative. colonies were red-pigmented. strains ro5-2(t) and ro5-14 were able to grow at 20-50 degrees c (optimum 37 degrees c), at 2.6-4.8 m nacl (optimum 3.4-3.9 m nacl), at 0.03-0.7 m mgcl(2) (optimum 0.5 m mgcl(2)) and at ph 5.5-8.0 (optimum ph 6.5-7.0). cells lyse in distilled water and the minimal ... | 2010 | 19854878 |
| halosarcina limi sp. nov., a halophilic archaeon from a marine solar saltern, and emended description of the genus halosarcina. | a halophilic archaeon, strain ro1-6(t), was isolated from a marine solar saltern in eastern china. cells of strain ro1-6(t) were pleomorphic and motile and stained gram-negative. strain ro1-6(t) grew well on complex medium and colonies were red-pigmented. it was able to grow at 20-50°c (optimum 37°c), in 2.1-5.1m nacl (optimum 3.9 m nacl), in 0.05-0.70 m mgcl₂ (optimum 0.30 m mgcl₂) and at ph 6.5-8.0 (optimum ph 7.0). cells lysed in distilled water and the minimal nacl concentration to prevent c ... | 2010 | 19946053 |
| halogeometricum rufum sp. nov., a halophilic archaeon from a marine solar saltern, and emended description of the genus halogeometricum. | two halophilic archaea, strains ro1-4(t) and ro1-64, were isolated from a marine solar saltern in jiangsu, china. cells of the two strains were pleomorphic, motile, and stained gram-negative. colonies were red-pigmented. strains ro1-4(t) and ro1-64 were able to grow at 25-55 °c (optimum 40-42 °c), at 2.1-5.1 m nacl (optimum 3.9 m nacl), at 0.05-0.7 m mgcl(2) (optimum 0.3 m mgcl(2)) and at ph 6.0-8.5 (optimum ph 7.0). cells lyse in distilled water and the minimal nacl concentration to prevent cel ... | 2010 | 20023063 |
| culture-independent study of the diversity of microbial populations in brines during fermentation of naturally-fermented aloreña green table olives. | aloreña table olives are naturally fermented traditional green olives with a denomination of protection (dop). the present study focused on aloreña table olives manufactured by small and medium enterprises (smes) from valle del guadalhorce (southern spain) under three different conditions (cold storage, and ambient temperature fermentations in small vats and in large fermentation tanks). the microbial load of brines during fermentation was studied by plate counting, and the microbial diversity w ... | 2010 | 21122933 |
| complete genome sequence of halogeometricum borinquense type strain (pr3). | halogeometricum borinquense montalvo-rodríguez et al. 1998 is the type species of the genus, and is of phylogenetic interest because of its distinct location between the halobacterial genera haloquadratum and halosarcina. h. borinquense requires extremely high salt (nacl) concentrations for growth. it can not only grow aerobically but also anaerobically using nitrate as electron acceptor. the strain described in this report is a free-living, motile, pleomorphic, euryarchaeon, which was originall ... | 2009 | 21304651 |
| phylogenetic diversities and community structure of members of the extremely halophilic archaea (order halobacteriales) in multiple saline sediment habitats. | we investigated the phylogenetic diversity and community structure of members of the halophilic archaea (order halobacteriales) in five distinct sediment habitats that experience various levels of salinity and salinity fluctuations (sediments from great salt plains, and zodletone spring in oklahoma, mangrove tree sediments in puerto rico, sediment underneath salt heaps in a salt-processing plant, and sediments from the great salt lake northern arm) using halobacteriales-specific 16s rrna gene pr ... | 2011 | 22179255 |
