Anhydrobiosis and reproduction in Anguina australis
Australasian Plant Pathology, 2001Survival and reproductive strategies of the leaf gall nematode, Anguina australis Steiner 1940, in annual veldt grass, Ehrharta longiflora Smith, in Western Australia were studied. The adults were found to survive anhydrobiotically over the dry summer within galls. When rehydrated and removed from the gall, about 70% of adults survived an initial cycle

Cellular Water and Anhydrobiosis in Plants
Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, 2015Anhydrobiosis is a well-known phenomenon represented in a range of plant, animal and microbial taxa. It is a unique faculty of some organisms to survive in the absence of even traceable water in their cells. As water is essential for life and unequivocally important for all the biological reactions and molecular integrity of cellular components ...

Anhydrobiosis in nematodes: Biosynthesis of trehalose
Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1980AbstractThe pathway for the synthesis of trehalose in Aphelenchus avenae was demonstrated. As in other systems, the enzymes involved in the synthesis of trehalose of A. avenae were found to be trehalose phosphate synthetase (TPS) and trehalosephosphate phosphatase (TPP). Some of the characteristics of trehalose phosphate synthetase were studied. It was

Anhydrobiosis in Terrestrial Invertebrates
1995Many invertebrates adapt to physiological stress by reduced metabolism and enter a state of quiescence associated with retarded senescence (e.g. Evans and Perry 1976; Womersley 1981, 1987; Ushatinskaya 1990; Wright et al. 1992). Quiescence can be induced by different kinds of environmental stress, including extreme temperatures, dehydration, high salt ...

Anhydrobiosis and Dehydration of Yeasts
2017Anhydrobiosis is a unique phenomenon of nature which gives possibility to various live organisms to survive during very hot and dry seasons of the year. It is the state in which all processes of metabolism are temporarily reversibly suspended as the result of strong dehydration of the cells.

Anhydrobiosis: the water replacement hypothesis
1998Both the association of amphiphiles to form phospholipid bilayers and the folding of proteins that results in their tertiary structure are profoundly influenced by the low solubility of hydrocarbons in water (e.g. Tanford, 1978). These molecular arrangements, which are thought to be entropically driven, are lost when the water in which they are formed ...

Biochemical and physiological aspects of anhydrobiosis
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 19811. 1. The biochemical and physiological mechanisms which are involved in anhydrobiotic survival have been reviewed. 2. 2. The physical state of water within hydrated and dehydrated organisms is discussed in relation to the concepts of “free” and “bound” water and to the “vicinal water network model” of Clegg (1979) Cell Associated Water ...

Anhydrobiosis in Non-conventional Yeasts
2019Anhydrobiosis is a unique state of living organisms that provides the possibility of surviving conditions of extreme heat and drought with temporary and reversible suspended processes of metabolism. Beyond its ecological importance in nature, it is used for the production of viable dry microbial preparations, including active dry yeast. During the last
