Buoyancy studies in natural communities of square gas-vacuolate archaea in saltern crystallizer ponds
BACKGROUND: Possession of gas vesicles is generally considered to be advantageous to halophilic archaea: the vesicles are assumed to enable the cells to float, and thus reach high oxygen concentrations at the surface of the brine. RESULTS: We studied the possible ecological advantage of gas vesicles...
