Abstract excerpt
From cyanobacterial mat, 36 strains of extremely halophilic archaebacteria were isolated. Basing on phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, two frequently occurring organisms among these strains were identified as Haloarcula japonica and Halobacterium distributum. Metabiotic interaction between halophilic Archaea and Microcoleus chthonoplastes, the primary organic matter producer, was demonstrated. It was shown...
