Microbial Diversity of Hadjer Elmelh (Salt Rocks) in Djelfa, Algeria.

The project focuses on exploring the microbial diversity of the hypersaline environment at Hadjer Elmelh, a unique salt rock formation in Djelfa, Algeria. This study involves the isolation and sequencing of 16S rRNA genes from environmental samples collected at multiple sites. The goal is to identify and characterize the microbial communities present in this extreme environment, providing insights into their ecological roles, adaptation mechanisms, and potential biotechnological applications.
