  2. 1. Production of poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) and ectoines using a halophilic bacterium

    Author : Thuoc Doan Van; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fermentation; Ectoine; halophilic bacterium; Poly 3-hydroxybutyrate ;

    Abstract : Halomonas boliviensis is a moderate halophilic bacterium, isolated from a soil sample around a hypersaline lake Laguna Colorada in the Andean region of Bolivia. The organism is capable of growing over a wide range of NaCl concentration (0-25 %, w/v), however with an optimum of about 4.5 % (w/v) NaCl. READ MORE

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bacterial evolution; Genomics; Symbiosis; Honeybees; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution;

    Abstract : The use of large-scale comparative genomics allows us to explore the genetic diversity and mechanisms of evolution of related organisms. This thesis has focused on the application of such approaches to study Lactobacillus kunkeei, a bacterial inhabitant of the honeybee gut.We produced 102 novel complete genomes from L. READ MORE
