Viruses Of Extreme Environments

Postępy Mikrobiologii, 2019
Extremophilic viruses inhabit even the most extreme environments, such as underwater and terrestrial hydrothermal vents, deserts, subpolar areas, deep subsurface sediments, hypersaline environments, and alkaline lakes.

Extremophiles and Extreme Environments [PDF]

Life, 2013
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

DSOF: A Rapid Method to Determine the Abundance of Microalgae and Methanotrophic Bacteria in Coculture Using a Combination of Differential Sedimentation, Optical Density, and Fluorescence

Bioengineering
Cocultivation of microalgae and aerobic methanotrophs represents an emerging biotechnology platform to produce high-protein biomass, yet quantifying individual species in mixed cultures remains challenging.

Extreme Exoworlds and the Extremophile Paradox

Astrobiology, 2022
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.

Evidence for phenotypic plasticity in the Antarctic extremophile Chlamydomonas raudensis Ettl. UWO 241

, 2010
Life in extreme environments poses unique challenges to photosynthetic organisms. The ability for an extremophilic green alga and its genetic and mesophilic equivalent to acclimate to changes in their environment was examined to determine the extent of ...

Subzero cell division, respiration, and genomic traits of cryophilic Arthrobacter agilis Ant-EH-1 isolated from cold-arid Antarctic mineral soils

Frontiers in Microbiology
Arthrobacter are commonly isolated from cold soil environments globally, including those that regularly reach sub-freezing temperatures, suggesting that Arthrobacter have significant potential for growth and activity under temperature and stress extremes.

The extremophile Nicotiana benthamiana has traded viral defence for early vigour

, 2015
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.

Bacterial growth in media mimicking the high salt and alkalinity of extreme kazakhstan environments results in production of antimicrobial compounds in soil actinomycetes isolated from these extremophile locations [PDF]

, 2013
Increasing antibiotic resistance among multidrug resistant pathogens necessitates the search for newer antimicrobials. Streptomyces historically produce the largest number of antibacterials and herein we describe isolation of antagonists from ...
