Benefits of natural biostimulants: Ginger and moringa extracts as seed priming agents to improve salinity tolerance of Ocimum basilicum L.

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca
Using natural biostimulants such as plant extracts is a novel agronomic biofortification strategy to mitigate abiotic stresses such as salinity on crops.

Temperature-dependent iron motion in extremophile rubredoxins – no need for ‘corresponding states’

open access: yesScientific Reports
Extremophile organisms are known that can metabolize at temperatures down to − 25 °C (psychrophiles) and up to 122 °C (hyperthermophiles). Understanding viability under extreme conditions is relevant for human health, biotechnological applications, and ...

A Model of Aerobic and Anaerobic Metabolism of Hydrogen in the Extremophile Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Hydrogen can serve as an electron donor for chemolithotrophic acidophiles, especially in the deep terrestrial subsurface and geothermal ecosystems. Nevertheless, the current knowledge of hydrogen utilization by mesophilic acidophiles is minimal.

Coupling Nitrogenous Organic Wastewater Treatment and Biorefinery via N‐Cycling Bacterium

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The vast reservoir of nitrogenous organic pollutants in industrial wastewaters can serve as untapped carbon‐nitrogen resources. This study employs the newly discovered Paracoccus sp. ZQW‐1 as a versatile chassis to simultaneously achieve N‐methylpyrrolidone (NMP) wastewater depuration and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthesis.

The Mystery of Piezophiles: Understudied Microorganisms from the Deep, Dark Subsurface

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Microorganisms that can withstand high pressure within an environment are termed piezophiles. These organisms are considered extremophiles and inhabit the deep marine or terrestrial subsurface.

‘All About’ Extremophiles

open access: yesFaculty Reviews, 2023
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.

Performance of the edible halophyte Cakile maritima under critical magnesium and potassium thresholds

open access: yesJournal of Oasis Agriculture and Sustainable Development
In their natural biotope, plants are challenged with low nutrient availability which is one of the most important limiting factors for plant production. Nutrient limitation causes disruption in several metabolic pathways resulting in a decrease in plant

Computational Study on Potentially Active Antibacterial Compounds in Secondary Metabolites of Extremophilic Microorganisms

open access: yesChemistryOpen, EarlyView.
This study employed density functional theory (DFT) and conceptual DFT (CDFT) to calculate the structures and properties of potential antibacterial compounds derived from 16‐membered lactone ring‐containing secondary metabolites of extremophiles, as well as midecamycin.

The pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase of the thermophilic acetogen, Thermoanaerobacter kivui

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2021
Pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR) is a key enzyme in bacterial anaerobic metabolism. Since a low‐potential ferredoxin (Fd2−) is used as electron carrier, PFOR allows for hydrogen evolution during heterotrophic growth as well as pyruvate synthesis
