Abstract:
The phenomenon of high genetic variability in the extremely halophilic archaebacterium Hb. salinarium is reviewed. The role of IS elements and homologous recombination in frequent genetic rearrangements in this organism is discussed. A possible cause of high genetic variability of Hb. salinarium is considered.
