The identification of the new species Nitratireductor thuwali sp. nov. reveals the untapped diversity of hydrocarbon-degrading culturable bacteria from the arid mangrove sediments of the Red Sea

IntroductionThe geological isolation, lack of freshwater inputs and specific internal water circulations make the Red Sea one of the most extreme—and unique—oceans on the planet. Its high temperature, salinity and oligotrophy, along with the consistent input of hydrocarbons due to its geology (e.g.,...
