Description

This comprehensive volume explores the remarkable world of halophiles, the salt-loving microorganisms found across archaea, bacteria and eukarya domains. Halophiles thrive in extreme environments, adapting to salt concentrations exceeding 300g/l NaCl and functioning in 2-5M salt solutions that would destroy most life forms. The book examines their exceptional metabolic diversity, including oxygenic and anoxygenic phototrophs, aerobic heterotrophs, denitrifiers, sulphate reducers, fermenters and methanogens. Readers gain insights into how halophile proteins are engineered to maintain function under such severe conditions, and discover sustainable exploitation strategies for these organisms. This volume is essential for scientists, researchers and students studying extremophile biology, microbial ecology, biotechnology applications and sustainable development through biodiversity.

Key Features

Halophiles taxonomy spans three life domains: archaea, bacteria and eukarya, positioned throughout the small subunit rRNA tree of life.

Microorganisms tolerate extreme salt concentrations beyond 300g/l NaCl, representing nature's most remarkable adaptation to hostile environments.

Metabolic diversity encompasses oxygenic phototrophs, anoxygenic phototrophs, aerobic heterotrophs, denitrifiers, sulphate reducers, fermenters and methanogens.

Halophile proteins demonstrate sophisticated engineering allowing function in 2-5M salt solutions where conventional proteins denature and fail.

Part of the Sustainable Development and Biodiversity series, connecting halophile research to global sustainability challenges and opportunities.
