Antarctic Soils Select Copiotroph-Dominated Bacteria
MicroorganismsThe life strategies of bacterial communities determine their structure and function and are an important driver of biogeochemical cycling. However, the variations in these strategies under different soil resource conditions remain largely unknown.

Biocontrol potential of Antarctic endophytic bacteria
Український антарктичний журналAntarctic endophytes, adapted to harsh environmental conditions, possess unique metabolic capabilities that can influence plant-microbe interactions. In this study, we investigated the impact of 15 plant growth-promoting bacterial strains isolated from ...

Biodeterioration of Untreated Polypropylene Microplastic Particles by Antarctic Bacteria. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2020 Microplastic pollution is globally recognised as a serious environmental threat due to its ubiquitous presence related primarily to improper dumping of plastic wastes. While most studies have focused on microplastic contamination in the marine ecosystem, microplastic pollution in the soil environment is generally little understood and often overlooked.

Polyphase Taxonomy of Antarctic Bacteria [PDF]
Mikrobiolohichnyi Zhurnal, 2021 The phylogenetic structure of bacteria is not always consistent with the traditional classification scheme based on the phenotypic properties of bacteria. That is one of the problems of modern bacterial taxonomy. In addition, traditional methods to identify bacteria using phenotypic properties have a number of disadvantages.

Lipases from psychrotropic antarctic bacteria [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 1990 Properties of lipases excreted by 4 psychrotropic Moraxella strains from antarctic sea water have investigated. Despite an optimal cell generation time at 25°C, maximal lipase excretion essentially occurs at low temperatures. These enzymes are characterized by a shift of the apparent optimal activity towards low temperatures, by a reduction of the ...

Enzymatic Activity of Psychrotolerant Antarctic Bacteria [PDF]
Mikrobiolohichnyi Zhurnal, 2021 The Antarctic region has significant potential to study the biodiversity of microorganisms and to search for bacterial producers of glycolytic and proteolytic enzymes with new properties. The aim was to study the extracellular glycosidase and proteolytic activity of four bacteria strains isolated from black lichens of the cliffs of Galindez Island in ...

Aerobiology in High Latitudes: Evidence of Bacteria Acting as Tracer of Warm Air Mass Advection reaching Northern Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2023 Despite the extent use of geochemical tracers to track warm air mass origin reaching the Antarctic continent, we present here evidences that microorganisms being transported by the atmosphere and deposited in fresh snow layers of Antarctic ice sheets do ...

Gastrointestinal Bacteria of Certain Antarctic Birds and Mammals [PDF]
Applied Microbiology, 1970 An investigation was carried out of the aerobic gram-negative intestinal flora of 158 penguins, 30 skuas, and 66 seals from the Antarctic and sub-Antarctic zones and Phillip Island. Among penguins and seals, 17% and 11%, respectively, were devoid of aerobic enteric organisms, but microscopic examination showed the presence of other
