Characterization of the Desiccation Tolerance of Cronobacter sakazakii Strains
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 Strong desiccation tolerance is an outstanding feature of Cronobacter sakazakii and can enable the bacterium to survive in a dry food matrix (such as milk powder) for a long time.

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 Most higher plants are unable to survive desiccation to an air-dried state. An exception is a small group of vascular angiosperm plants, termed resurrection plants. They have evolved unique mechanisms of desiccation tolerance and thus can tolerate severe

Profiling of phenolic compounds in desiccation‐tolerant and non‐desiccation‐tolerant Linderniaceae [PDF]
Phytochemical Analysis, 2020 AbstractIntroductionCraterostigma plantagineum and Lindernia brevidens are resurrection plants, so these plants can tolerate desiccation of their vegetative tissues. Different components and mechanisms contribute to desiccation tolerance and secondary plant metabolites, like phenolic compounds, may play a role during these processes.ObjectivesSecondary

mSystems, 2022 Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen prevalent in the environment and in health care settings. Transmission in the health care setting occurs through human-human interactions and/or contact with contaminated surfaces.

Regulatory dynamics distinguishing desiccation tolerance strategies within resurrection grasses
Plant Direct, 2022 Desiccation tolerance has evolved recurrently in grasses using two unique strategies of either protecting or dismantling the photosynthetic apparatus to minimize photooxidative damage under life without water (anhydrobiosis).

Sugars and Desiccation Tolerance in Seeds [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1988 Soluble sugars have been shown to protect liposomes and lobster microsomes from desiccation damage, and a protective role has been proposed for them in several anhydrous systems. We have studied the relationship between soluble sugar content and the loss of desiccation tolerance in the axes of germinating soybean (Glycine max L. Merr. cv Williams), pea

Protein Aggregation is Associated with Acinetobacter baumannii Desiccation Tolerance
Microorganisms, 2020 Desiccation tolerance has been implicated as an important characteristic that potentiates the spread of the bacterial pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii on dry surfaces. Here we explore several factors influencing desiccation survival of A. baumannii.

Metabolite Profiling in Green Microalgae with Varying Degrees of Desiccation Tolerance
Microorganisms, 2022 Trebouxiophyceae are microalgae occupying even extreme environments such as polar regions or deserts, terrestrial or aquatic, and can occur free-living or as lichen photobionts.

PLoS ONE, 2020 Water is essential for living organisms. Terrestrial organisms are incessantly exposed to the stress of losing water, desiccation stress. Avoiding the mortality caused by desiccation stress, many organisms acquired molecular mechanisms to tolerate ...
