Most are halophilic from marine or hypersaline origin and some are also alkaliphilic. The most significative genus is Halomonas, with more than 60 species. In this chapter authors review the phylogenetic relationships and taxonomic classification of the members of this family, as well as some other aspects such as the interest of the species of this family, especially with respect to their biotechnological applications and potentialities.application/pdf71 p.engTaxonomy, phylogeny and biotechnological interest of the family Halomonadaceaeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bookPartinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-20198-1_3
