Abstract excerpt
DNA nucleotide composition was studied in extreme halophilic bacteria belonging to the genera Halobacterium, Halococcus, Natronobacterium and Natronococcus. The cultures were shown to be a monolithic group of microorganisms with the content of GC pairs typical of extreme halophilic archebacteria. The difference between the content of DNA major and minor components was twice as high in Halobacterium distributus...
