    Microbial Communities Utilizing Hydrocarbons and Lipids: Members, Metagenomics and Ecophysiology (2019)
    Cham : Springer
    Details Availability
    Keywords: Biotechnology ; Biochemistry ; Microbial ecology ; Microbiology ; Bioremediation. ; Industrial microbiology. ; Environmental engineering.
    Description / Table of Contents: This book provides comprehensive, authoritative discussions about microbial communities in environments that are rich in hydrocarbons, crude oil or lipids. It encompasses natural environments, such as tar sands, oil seeps and reservoirs, as well as habitats where methane is produced. Equally, the book deals with habitats that have been influenced by human activity, including oil-contaminated soils, aquifers, coast and seas. The book opens with a series of chapters considering the contemporary approaches used to investigate microbial communities

    Halobacteria: the evidence for longevity (1998)
    Springer
    Extremophiles 2 (1998), S. 279-287 
    Details
    ISSN: 1433-4909
    Keywords: Key words Halobacteria ; Haloarchaea ; Evaporites ; Dormancy ; 16S rRNA genes ; rRNA gene heterogeneity ; Salt mines ; Longevity
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract Subterranean salt deposits are the remains of ancient hypersaline waters that presumably supported dense populations of halophilic microorganisms including representatives of the haloarchaea (halobacteria). Ancient subterranean salt deposits (evaporites) are common throughout the world, and the majority sampled to date appear to support diverse populations of halobacteria. The inaccessibility of deep subsurface deposits, and the special requirements of these organisms for survival, make contamination by halobacteria from surface sites unlikely. It is conceivable that these subterranean halobacteria are autochthonous, presumably relict populations derived from ancient hypersaline seas that have been revived from a state of dormancy. One would predict that halobacteria that have been insulated and isolated inside ancient evaporites would be different from comparable bacteria from surface environments, and that it might be possible to use a molecular chronometer to establish if the evolutionary position of the subsurface isolates correlated with the geological age of the evaporite. Extensive comparisons have been made between the 16S rRNA genes of surface and subsurface halobacteria without showing any conclusive differences between the two groups. A further phylogenetic comparison exploits an unusual feature of one particular group of halobacteria that possess at least two heterogeneous copies of the 16S rRNA gene, the sequences of which may have been converging or diverging over geological time. However, results to date have yet to show any gene sequence differences between surface and evaporite-derived halobacteria that might arguably be an indication of long-term dormancy.
