Ecological successions throughout the desiccation of tirez lagoon (spain) as an astrobiological time-analog for wet-to-dry transitions on mars

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

The authors consider here only the results obtained by Montoya et_al16 by gene cloning, since those obtained by isolation and sequencing are not comparable. The authors can consider these results presented in Montoya et_al16 as the "ecological baseline" for Tirez, however taken with a grain of salt, because only 43 bacterial and 35 archaeal sequences, including rainy and dry seasons and water and sediments, were considered for analysis. Species within this genus are moderately halophilic, e_g, M. halophilus, capable to grow in up to 4% NaCl. Even though the role that Malaciobacter can play . . .
