Isolation, morphological and molecular identification of Dunaliella species in Hoz-e Soltan and Aran-va-Bidgol salt Lakes (Iran)
Authors
Abstract:
In this study, Dunaliella has been isolated in Jun. 2014 from Hoz-e Soltan and Aran-va-Bidgol salt Lakes (Iran). The isolates have been identified morphologically with the aid of simple light and invert microscope after isolation and purification on their specific medium (Moh202). By using molecular techniques such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and amplification of 18S rDNA gene primers, further identification was done and morphological identification were confirmed. The isolation and molecular identification of the Dunaliella species from above-mentioned lakes revealed that, at least two species of Dunaliella, namely, D. parva and D. viridis exist in the studied area.

Prokaryotic Diversity in Aran-Bidgol Salt Lake, the Largest Hypersaline Playa in Iran
Prokaryotic diversity in Aran-Bidgol salt lake, a thalasohaline lake in Iran, was studied by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), cultivation techniques, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of PCR-amplified fragments of 16S rRNA genes and 16S rRNA gene clone library analysis. Viable counts obtained (2.5-4 × 10(6) cells mL(-1)) were similar to total cell abundance in the lake de...

Diarrhea is the second leading cause of death in children under five in developing countries and one of the nine causes of death in children worldwide (1, 2). Diarrheal diseases are major causes of malnutrition, delayed physical development, and early childhood mortality in in developing countries and poor communities (3, 4). The major cause of death in children with diarrhea is loss of water a...
full textDetermination and Comparison of Preference Value for Five Halophyte Species in the Marginal Rangeland of Salt Lake in Aran and Bidgol Region, Kshan, Iran
Since the halophytes species have an important role in such ecosystem balance and they have been grazed by livestock as supplementary forage, the awareness of livestock's desire to grazing and their preference values of these species is of high priority. Regardless of the importance of halophyte species in the livestock feeding in Iran, there is less published research on the livestock grazing ...
