Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plants have a wide range of adaptive and protective mechanisms to cope with dehydration. Central in these processes are the Late Embryogenesis Abundant (LEA) proteins, whose levels notably increase in response to dehydration during seed development and vegetative tissues.

Plant Biology, EarlyView.This study clarifies the role of flagellate cells in four Trebouxia species. Using innovative techniques, we could distinguish between zoospores and gametes, providing the first detailed evidence of sex. Abstract Trebouxia is one of the most frequent genera of green microalgae that occur as photobionts in lichens.

The Biodiversity and Geochemistry of Cryoconite Holes in Queen Maud Land, East Antarctica [PDF]
, 2019 Cryoconite holes are oases of microbial diversity on ice surfaces. In contrast to the Arctic, where during the summer most cryoconite holes are ‘open’, in Continental Antarctica they are most often ‘lidded’ or completely frozen year-round.

Are lichens biocompasses? Revisiting an old prediction using new techniques
Plant Biology, EarlyView.The equator‐facing portions of tree trunks receive direct sunlight and create restrictive microclimate conditions for lichens that orient preferentially towards the Earth's poles where trunks are shaded, indicating an optimal zone at the fine‐scale radial dimension.

Investigating the Automatic Classification of Algae Using Fusion of Spectral and Morphological Characteristics of Algae via Deep Residual Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Under the impact of global climate changes and human activities, harmful algae blooms in surface waters have become a growing concern due to negative impacts on water related industries. Therefore, reliable and cost effective methods of quantifying the type and concentration of threshold levels of algae cells has become critical for ensuring successful

High Protistan Parasite Occurrence During Fall in a Warm, Low Sea Ice Year in the Eastern Bering Sea
Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 4, July/August 2025.ABSTRACT Marine protists in the eastern Bering Sea (EBS) are understudied despite being a critical component of the productive subarctic ecosystem. Climate change, and particularly the loss of sea ice, is rapidly altering this ecologically vulnerable and economically important system.
