A new model for the formation of microbial polygons in a coastal sabkha setting [PDF]
The stratigraphic record of microbially induced sedimentary structures spans most of the depositional record. Today, microbes continue to generate, bind and modify sediments in a vast range of depositional environments.

Reproduction and Dispersal of Biological Soil Crust Organisms [PDF]
Biological soil crusts (BSCs) consist of a diverse and highly integrated community of organisms that effectively colonize and collectively stabilize soil surfaces.

Significance The well-established up-regulation of genes coding for protective proteins during drying of desiccation-tolerant taxa has been central to previous efforts to understand (and manipulate) desiccation tolerance.

Desiccation resistance and persistence of Cronobacter species in infant formula [PDF]
Cronobacter is a newly described genus which includes opportunistic pathogens formerly known as ‘Enterobacter sakazakii’. These organisms have been isolated from a wide variety of sources, including powdered infant formula (PIF).

Thrips domiciles protect larvae from desiccation in an arid environment [PDF]
Desiccation is a particular risk for small animals in arid environments. In response, many organisms “construct niches,” favorable microenvironments where they spend part or all of their life cycle. Some maintain such environments for their offspring via

•Catastrophic failure of the water transport pathway in trees is a principal mechanism of mortality during extreme drought. To be able to predict the probability of mortality at an individual and landscape scale we need knowledge of the time for plants ...

Metabolismo de metilglioxal en macroalgas durante desecación [PDF]
Indexación: Scielo; Web of Science.In primary producers, diverse stressors cause an over-production of methylglyoxal (MG), which is principally detoxified by glyoxalase I (GLO1) activity.

Haberlea rhodopensis is a resurrection plant with an extremely high desiccation tolerance. Even after long periods of almost full desiccation, its physiological functions are recovered shortly upon re-watering.

Global Screening of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Genes for Desiccation Survival
Salmonella spp., one of the most common foodborne bacterial pathogens, has the ability to survive under desiccation conditions in foods and food processing facilities for years.

A recurrent gene duplication event is found in all surveyed resurrection plant genomes supporting convergent evolution of this trait. Desiccation tolerance was a critical adaptation for the colonization of land by early nonvascular plants.
