| Abstract |
Phototrophic bacterial mats from Kiran soda lake (south-eastern Siberia) were studied using integrated approach including analysis of the ion composition of water, pigments composition, bacterial diversity and the vertical distribution of phototrophic microorganisms in the mats. Bacterial diversity was investigated using microscopic examination, 16S rRNA gene Illumina sequencing and culturing methods. The mats were formed as a result of decomposition of sedimented planktonic microorganisms, among which cyanobacteria of the genus Arthrospira predominated. Cyanobacteria were the largest part of phototrophs in the mats, but anoxygenic phototrophs were significant fraction. The prevailing species of the anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria are typical for soda lakes. The mats harbored aerobic anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria, purple sulfur and non-sulfur bacteria, as well as new filamentous phototrophic Chloroflexi. New strains of Thiocapsa sp. Kir-1, Ectothiorhodospira sp. Kir-2 and Kir-4, Thiorhodospira sp. Kir-3 and novel phototrophic Chloroflexi bacterium Kir15-3F were isolated and identified. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 6. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 December 2017.
All research outputs
#5,806,766
of 23,012,811 outputs
Outputs from Extremophiles
#179
of 801 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#114,514
of 440,666 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Extremophiles
#7
of 21 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,012,811 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 74th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 801 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 76% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 440,666 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 73% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 21 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
