Evaluation of salinity tolerance indices in North African barley accessions at reproductive stage
Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2019 Soil salinity is one of the main factors limiting cereal productivity in worldwide agriculture. Exploitation of natural variation in local barley germplasm is an effective approach to overcome yield losses.

Geometry Controls Confined Water Dynamics in Lipidic Mesophases
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.An archaeal‐inspired lipidic mesophase allows precise control of interfacial curvature and water‐channel connectivity. Combining structural, thermodynamic, and ultrafast spectroscopies, we reveal that curvature governs the structure and reorientation dynamics of confined water, establishing a molecular‐level link between topology and dynamics in soft ...

Extremophile enzymes for food additives and fertilizers
Microbial Biotechnology, 2021 The use of extremophile enzymes for industrial purposes has become very significant since the beginning of this century and it is envisaged an ample use of enzymes for environmental applications (fertilisers, food and feed additives, biodegradation ...

SnapShot: Microbial Extremophiles
Cell, 2020 Extremophiles are remarkable examples of life's resilience, thriving in hot springs at boiling temperatures, in brine lakes saturated with salt, and in the driest deserts. We review the biogeography, currently known limits of life, and molecular adaptations to extremes. See the online interactive map for additional detail on biogeography, environmental
