ISOLATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF A THERMOPHILIC CYANOBACTERIUM FROM BALCOVA, IZMIR, TURKEY

Hydrothermal systems have prevailed throughout geological history on earth, and ancient Archaean hydrothermal deposits could provide clues to understanding earth’s earliest biosphere. A cyanobacterium living at 50◦C was isolated from Balcova geothermal field. 16s rDNA was extracted and amplified for sequence analysis.
