Diversity of the Cabo Rojo solar salterns utilizing culture-dependent methods and description of two novel species 

Sánchez-Nieves, Rubén L. (2017)
Archaea compose the third domain of life and are most notable for the ability of some to thrive in extreme environments, such environment is that of high salinity. This project focused on the culturable haloarchaeal diversity ...

Partial purification of agarases from halophilic microorganisms isolated from marine and hypersaline environments in Puerto Rico 

Oyola-Rivera, Miguel X. (2017)
Las agarasas son enzimas que son capaces de catalizar la hidrólisis de agar. Se clasifican en dos grupos, que son α-agarasa y β-agarasa, de acuerdo con el patrón de escisión. Varias agarasas se han aislado de diferentes ...

Detection of integron-encoded integrases in environments with moderate anthropogenic impact from Puerto Rico 

Castro-Díaz, Zenaida (2012)
Integrons are genetic elements with a site-specific recombination system which includes an integrase (IntI) capable of capturing and expressing promoterless, circular DNA molecules known as gene cassettes. Although integrons ...

Endophytic prokaryotic diversity associated with sea grass beds of Thalassia testudinum from Cabo Rojo, Lajas, and Vieques, Puerto Rico 

Couto-Rodríguez, Mara (2009)
Sea grass beds are considered a vital component of marine ecosystems, which serve as a nutrient source for many marine organisms, while also providing a critical habitat for many endangered species. In Puerto Rico sea grass ...

A survey of the alkalithermophilic prokaryotic diversity from the hot spring waters in Coamo Puerto Rico. 

Burgos-Figueroa, Aned M. (2007)
Thermal springs are high temperature aquatic environments. The prokaryotic diversity in these environments has been studied world wide. However, there are few studies on the prokaryotic diversity in thermal springs in ...

Diversity of moderately halophilic bacteria associated with the soil of the black mangrove, Avicennia germinans 

Jiménez-Santiago, Gina I. (2011)
Mangroves are complex ecosystems that contribute the coast environment by maintaining terrestrial and marine food chains, among others. Black mangrove, Avicennia germinans, on which this study is centered, predominates ...
Thumbnail

Phylogenetic and taxonomical characterization of microbial populations putatively capable of autotrophic ammonia oxidation from marine, saline and hypersaline environments at the Cabo Rojo Salterns, Puerto Rico 

Tosado-Rodríguez, Eduardo L. (2016)
Autotrophic ammonia oxidation has been studied over the years and several enzymes involved in this metabolism have been identified. This metabolism has been detected in several environments, but there are no reports of it ...
Thumbnail

Fungal diversity present at a hypersaline environment in Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico, determined by characterization of isolates and analysis of environmental rRNA genes clones libraries 

Díaz-Muñoz, Greetchen. (2006)
Solar salterns are a thalassohaline environment where sea water is evaporated to obtain salt for commercial purposes. The prokaryotic diversity on these places has been extensively studied world wide. However, there are ...
Thumbnail

Microbial diversity of halotolerant and halophilic endophytes from the mangrove Avicennia germinans located at the solar salterns of Cabo Rojo, Puerto Rico 

Zayas-Rivera, Jeysika (2018-12-02)
The relationship between plants and their environment has been described as a continuum, in which changes of a variable may have an effect on another. Ecological shifts in temperature, humidity, and soil chemistry can alter ...
Thumbnail

Physiological and transcriptome-based profile of glycosyl hydrolases from the Halophilic archaeon Halogeometricum borinquense 

Cuebas-Irizarry, Mara F. (2017)
Since the discovery of the Archaea domain, a lot of interest has been given to study regulation of gene expression in these microorganisms. However, few reports are available that provides knowledge about how essential ...
