Phenotypic Characterization and Comparative Genomics of the Melanin-Producing Yeast Exophiala lecanii-corni Reveals a Distinct Stress Tolerance Profile and Reduced Ribosomal Genetic Content

Journal of Fungi, 2021
The black yeast Exophiala lecanii-corni of the order Chaetothyriales is notable for its ability to produce abundant quantities of DHN-melanin. While many other Exophiala species are frequent causal agents of human infection, E.

Extremophiles in a changing world

Extremophiles
AbstractExtremophiles and their products have been a major focus of research interest for over 40 years. Through this period, studies of these organisms have contributed hugely to many aspects of the fundamental and applied sciences, and to wider and more philosophical issues such as the origins of life and astrobiology.

Proline priming: An efficient strategy to mitigate salinity impact at early developmental stages of the oilseed halophyte Cakile maritima

Notulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca
Seed germination is a vital process, yet extremely sensitive to salinity. This is particularly true for coastal halophytes like the annual oilseed species Cakile maritima, which faces the simultaneous impact of wind, salt-spray and seawater inundations ...

Cross-Stress Adaptation in a Piezophilic and Hyperthermophilic Archaeon From Deep Sea Hydrothermal Vent

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Hyperthermophiles, living in environments above 80°C and usually coupling with multi-extreme environmental stresses, have drawn great attention due to their application potential in biotechnology and being the primitive extant forms of life.

Feather Microbiota Landscapes: Biogeography and Phenology Shape Feather Microbiota Traits in a Migratory Seabird in a Subantarctic Ecosystem

Molecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 21, November 2025.
ABSTRACT It is known that phenological changes (i.e., behavioural and sometimes morphological and physiological traits that repeat annually) influence the wildlife gut microbiota. However, it remains largely unknown to what extent geographic variation could modulate the effect that phenology has on wildlife microbiota.

Effect of seed priming with auxin on ROS detoxification and carbohydrate metabolism and their relationship with germination and early seedling establishment in salt stressed maize

BMC Plant Biology
As crucial stages in the plant ontogeny, germination and seedling establishment under adverse conditions greatly determine staple crop growth and productivity. In the context of green technologies aiming to improve crop yield, seed priming is emerging as

Lithium in plants

New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 4, Page 1639-1654, November 2025.
Summary The physiological significance of lithium (Li+) remains largely unexplored in plants despite its consistent presence in at least trace concentrations in plant tissues. While Li+ has traditionally been associated with salinity‐like stress symptoms and presumed to utilise sodium (Na+) transport pathways, accumulating evidence points to multiple ...
