High diversity and suggested endemicity of culturable Actinobacteria in an extremely oligotrophic desert oasis
The phylum Actinobacteria constitutes one of the largest and anciently divergent phyla within the Bacteria domain. Actinobacterial diversity has been thoroughly researched in various environments due to its unique biotechnological potential. Such studies have focused mostly on soil communities, but more recently marine and extreme environments have also been explored, finding rare taxa and demo...
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 کاملBacterial diversity, pigments and nitrogen fixation of biological desert crusts from the Sultanate of Oman.
Biological desert crusts are relatively common in the arid deserts of the Sultanate of Oman; however, little is known about their microbial community composition and role in soil fertilization. We compared three crusts from geographically different locations for their soil texture, bacterial community structure, pigment composition and nitrogenase activity. The crusts were growing on alkaline (...
متن کاملLabile carbon in biological soil crusts in the Tabernas desert, SE Spain
Decomposition processes are extremely important in biological soil crusts (BSCs). Although the effects of temperature and moisture on such processes have been widely studied, little is known about the influence of the readily metabolizable substrate (labile C) and how this substrate varies in different types of BSCs. In the present study, BSCs formed by cyanobacteria (CYANO) and by lichens (DIP...
متن کاملHigh Bacterial Diversity of Biological Soil Crusts in Water Tracks over Permafrost in the High Arctic Polar Desert
In this study we report the bacterial diversity of biological soil crusts (biocrusts) inhabiting polar desert soils at the northern land limit of the Arctic polar region (83° 05 N). Employing pyrosequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA genes this study demonstrated that these biocrusts harbor diverse bacterial communities, often as diverse as temperate latitude communities. The effect of wetting pulse...
