WOS: 000304071800008 Izmir Camalti Saltern is the biggest seawater-based saltern in Turkey. To date, it has not been investigated extensively for the existence of poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB)-producing species. In this study, 14 extremely halophilic archaea were isolated, purified, and screened for...
