ABSTRACT Four strains of euryhaline bacteria belonging to the genus Halomonas were tested for their response to a range of temperatures (2, 13, and 30°C), hydrostatic pressures (0.1, 7.5, 15, 25, 35, 45, and 55 MPa), and salinities (4, 11, and 17% total salts). The isolates were psychrotolerant, halophilic to moderately halophilic, and piezotolerant, growing fastest at 30°C, 0.1 MPa, and 4% total salts. Little or no growth occurred at the highest hydrostatic pressures tested, an effect that was more pronounced with decreasing temperatures. Growth curves suggested that the Halomonas strains tested would grow well in cool to warm hydrothermal-vent and associated subseafloor habitats, but poorly or not at all under cold deep-sea conditions. The intermediate salinity tested enhanced growth under certain high-hydrostatic-pressure and low-temperature conditions, highlighting a synergistic effect on growth for these combined stresses. Phospholipid profiles obtained at 30°C indicated that hydrostatic pressure exerted the dominant control on the degree of lipid saturation, although elevated salinity slightly mitigated the increased degree of lipid unsaturation caused by increased hydrostatic pressure. Profiles of cytosolic and membrane proteins of Halomonas axialensis and H. hydrothermalis performed at 30°C under various salinities and hydrostatic pressure conditions indicated several hydrostatic pressure and salinity effects, including proteins whose expression was induced by either an elevated salinity or hydrostatic pressure, but not by a combination of the two. The interplay between salinity and hydrostatic pressure on microbial growth and physiology suggests that adaptations to hydrostatic pressure and possibly other stresses may partially explain the euryhaline phenotype of members of the genus Halomonas living in deep-sea environments.

Six well-known strains of halotolerant bacteria, including two strains previously identified only as NRCC 41227 and Ba1have been compared using 125 phenotypic characters and DNA–DNA hybridization. Although these strains represent some of the most heavily studied salt-tolerant bacteria, they have never been taxonomically compared. The data presented show that these bacteria form a relatively homogeneous group related at the genus level. The taxonomic comparison showed that these six organisms represented four distinct species all related above the 65% Jaccard coefficient level. In addition to two previously identified bacterial species, Halomonas elongata (ATCC 33173T) and Halomonas halodurans (ATCC 29686T), the strains included in this study represent two previously unnamed Halomonas species. These two new taxa have been assigned the names Halomonas israelensis (ATCC 43985T) and Halomonas canadensis (NRCC 41227T = ATCC 43984). DNA–DNA hybridizations show that these two species are related to the type species H. elongata at 54.9 and 48.9%, respectively.Key words: Halomonas, taxonomy, israelensis, canadensis, halotolerant.
