Haloarchaea are halophilic microorganisms belonging to the archaea domain that inhabit
salty environments (mainly soils and water) all over the world. Most of the genera included in …

Bioremediation is the use of microorganisms for the degradation or removal of contaminants.
Most bioremediation research has focused on processes performed by the domain Bacteria; …

As a group, the halophilic archaea (class Halobacteria) are the most salt-requiring and salt-
resistant microorganisms within the domain Archaea. Halophilic archaea flourish in …

Discovering how organisms and their proteins adapt to extreme conditions is a complicated
process. Every condition has its own set of adaptations that make it uniquely stable in its …

Haloferax volcanii is an obligate halophilic archaeon with its origin in the Dead Sea. Simple
laboratory culture conditions and a wide range of genetic tools have made it a model …

Hypersaline wastewater is difficult to treat due to the inhibition of salt stress on microbes'
viability and metabolic capabilities. Haloarchaea, native microorganisms that thrive in …

The diversity of haloarchaea associated with different dry salt lakes in northeastern Algeria
was investigated together with their potential of hydrolytic enzyme production. A total of 68 …

Keke Salt Lake is located in the Qaidamu Basin of China. It is a unique magnesium sulfate-
subtype hypersaline lake that exhibits a halite domain ecosystem, yet its microbial diversity …

Three extremely halophilic archaeal strains (LT55T, SQT-29-1T and WLHS5T) were isolated
from Gobi saline soil and a salt lake, China. These strains were most related to the genera …
