Ghale-madreseh is the first point that the saline and sulfurous streams flow into Tembi River, one of the well-known saline rivers in Khuzestan province, Iran. This river is one of the main sources of increasing Karun River’s salinity, which is the largest river in Iran in terms of discharge. There are three saline and sulfurous springs (Shour-1, Shour-2m and Namak Springs) as well as a drinkab...

Soil physicochemical properties are the main driving factors affecting stability and diversity of soil microbial community. The impacts saline–alkali situation associated degradation need to be understood reversed as communities increasingly affected by saline–alkaline soil. However, differences between salinization alkalization their impact on microbiota have been overlooked. object this study...

Background: The appearance of multi-drug resistant microorganisms is becoming a global problem. Already several strategies have been employed to overcome antibiotic resistance issue. Developing new antimicrobial compounds from microbial sources could be a beneficial solution. Hence screening programs in order to discover new antibiotics from microbial entities are interesting. Because of high c...

Coastal salt-affected soils account for a large area all around the world. Soil salinity and pH are two important parameters affecting soil quality. Investigating correlation of electrical conductivity (EC) at different depths in saline was useful quickly assessing saline–alkaline characteristics. During natural desalination process field reclaimed lands, phenomena increase nitrogen accumulatio...
