Actinobacteria from Arid and Desert Habitats: Diversity and Biological Activity
The lack of new antibiotics in the pharmaceutical pipeline guides more and more researchers to leave the classical isolation procedures and to look in special niches and ecosystems. Bioprospecting of extremophilic Actinobacteria through mining untapped strains and avoiding resiolation of known biomolecules is among the most promising strategies for this purpose. With this approach, members of a...
متن کاملDiversity and Community Composition of Vertebrates in Desert River Habitats
Animal species are seldom distributed evenly at either local or larger spatial scales, and instead tend to aggregate in sites that meet their resource requirements and maximise fitness. This tendency is likely to be especially marked in arid regions where species could be expected to concentrate at resource-rich oases. In this study, we first test the hypothesis that productive riparian sites i...
متن کاملDiversity and Antimicrobial Potential of Culturable Actinobacteria from Desert Soils of Saudi Arabia
The present investigation Saudi Arabian desert actinobacteria have been studied for discovery of novel actinobacteria and also useful new sources for bioactive metabolites. Soil samples were collected from 10 different places in Riyadh province of Saudi Arabia. The maximum actinobacterial count 21.8x10 was recorded in Hazlullah soil sample and minimum 1.6x10 was recorded in Al-Kharj soil sample...
متن کاملDesert Farming Benefits from Microbial Potential in Arid Soils and Promotes Diversity and Plant Health
BACKGROUND To convert deserts into arable, green landscapes is a global vision, and desert farming is a strong growing area of agriculture world-wide. However, its effect on diversity of soil microbial communities, which are responsible for important ecosystem services like plant health, is still not known. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We studied the impact of long-term agriculture on deser...
