Arhodomonas sp. strain Seminole and its genetic potential to degrade aromatic compounds under high-salinity conditions
(American Society for Microbiology, 2014-11)Arhodomonas sp. strain Seminole was isolated from a crude oil-impacted brine soil and shown to degrade benzene, toluene, phenol, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4-HBA), protocatechuic acid (PCA), and phenylacetic acid (PAA) as the ... -
Assessing the potential for beneficial reuse of passively-treated mine waters for livestock watering and crop irrigation
(2020-12-18)Passive treatment of mine drainage provides demonstrated water quality improvements and substantial removal of ecotoxic metals via biogeochemical, microbiological, and physical mechanisms. When mine drainage is treated to ... -
Comparative physiology of two poikilohaline Picochlorum strains
(2020-05)The Picochlorum genus was first circumscribed in 2004, and has since had numerous species and strains added and characterized. This study uses batch and semicontinuous chemostat culture modes to investigate the physiology ... -
Economic approach on allocation of irrigation water under salinity based on different soils for potential irrigated agriculture using the EPIC crop model
(2011-12)Scope and Method of Study: The objective of this study was to understand the long term effect of using irrigation water with water and soil salinity on cotton yield based on the 15 soil types along the Elm and North Fork ... -
Genome-wide expression profiling in leaves and roots of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) exposed to salinity
(BioMed Central, 2017-03-22)Background: Date palm, as one of the most important fruit crops in North African and West Asian countries including Oman, is facing serious growth problems due to salinity, arising from persistent use of saline water for ... -
Genome-wide identification of the miRNAome in response to salinity stress in date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.)
(Frontiers Media, 2015-11-05)Although date palm is relatively salt-tolerant, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms that contribute to its salt tolerance. Only recently, investigators have uncovered microRNA-mediated post-transcriptional ... -
Growth response of the green alga Picochlorum oklahomensis to nutrient limitation and salinity stress
(2008-07)Photosynthetic organisms rarely experience optimal growth conditions in their natural habitat, and at any given time, two or more physical and chemical variables are likely to be suboptimal. It has been previously established ... -
Proteogenomic elucidation of the initial steps in the benzene degradation pathway of a novel halophile, Arhodomonas sp. strain Rozel, isolated from a hypersaline environment
(American Society for Microbiology, 2012-10)Lately, there has been a special interest in understanding the role of halophilic and halotolerant organisms for their ability to degrade hydrocarbons. The focus of this study was to investigate the genes and enzymes ...
