Nothing special in the specialist? Draft genome sequence of Cryomyces antarcticus, the most extremophilic fungus from Antarctica.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The draft genome of the Antarctic endemic fungus Cryomyces antarcticus is presented. This rock inhabiting, microcolonial fungus is extremely stress tolerant and it is a model organism for exobiology and studies on stress resistance in Eukaryots.

Discovery of Naturally Etched Fission Tracks and Alpha-Recoil Tracks in Submarine Glasses: Reevaluation of a Putative Biosignature for Earth and Mars

International Journal of Geophysics, 2016
Over the last two decades, conspicuously “biogenic-looking” corrosion microtextures have been found to occur globally within volcanic glass of the in situ oceanic crust, ophiolites, and greenstone belts dating back to ~3.5 Ga.

First record of multicellular filamentous benthic bacteria from freshwater lagoons in central Chile

Gayana
Observations on “macrobacteria” inhabiting the reduced bottoms of two freshwater lagoons in central Chile are here presented. The new finding of morphologically diverse, colorless multicellular filamentous bacteria expands their known presence into ...

Analytical Chemistry in Exobiology

Biological Sciences in Space, 1988
Recent and scheduled chemical analysis in space missions are reviewed. Recent progress in analytical chemistry have made it possible to analyze chemical cpmposition of extraterrestrial samples in space. VEGA-1 and Giotto utilized mass spectrometers to analyze cometary dust particles. Phobos I and II are flying toward Mars and its moons.

Heterogeneity of rock-hosted microbial communities in a serpentinizing aquifer of the Coast Range Ophiolite

Frontiers in Microbiology
The movement of groundwater through fractured bedrock provides favorable conditions for subsurface microbial life, characterized by constrained flow pathways and distinctive local environmental conditions.
