Despite common perception, most of Earth is what is often referred to as an 'extreme environment.' Yet to the organisms that call these places home, it is simply that (home). They have adapted to thrive in these environments and, in the process, have evolved many unique adaptations at the molecular- and 'omic-level.

Members of the genus Thermococcus, sulfur-reducing hyperthermophilic archaea, are ubiquitously present in various deep-sea hydrothermal vent systems and are considered to play a significant role in the microbial consortia.

The extremophile Nicotiana benthamiana has traded viral defence for early vigour
A single lineage of Nicotiana benthamiana is widely used as a model plant1 and has been instrumental in making revolutionary discoveries about RNA interference (RNAi), viral defence and vaccine production.

Study of extremophile plant extracts as botanical herbicides
peer reviewedWeeds are defined as harmful plant pests affecting agriculture worldwide. They cause huge economic losses which can rise up to 34% in major crops by lowering yields and competing with crops for nutrients, light, and water. For these reasons,

Extremophiles and Extreme Environments [PDF]
Over the last decades, the study of extremophiles has providing ground breaking discoveries that challenge the paradigms of modern biology and make us rethink intriguing questions such as "what is life?", "what are the limits of life?", and "what are the fundamental features of life?". These findings and possibilities have made the study of life in

Extreme Exoworlds and the Extremophile Paradox
Extremophiles have gained prominence by providing an experimental approach to astrobiology. Extremophiles gain equal value by being part of a framework for high-level characterization of the evolutionary mechanisms that must necessarily restrict or promote their emergence and presence on solar system bodies.
