Preserving tardigrades under pressure
Nature, 1998When an animal is exposed to high hydrostatic pressure, its cellular membranes1,2, proteins3,4,5 and DNA6 are damaged. At pressures of around 30 megapascals (MPa), proliferation and metabolism in micro-organisms stops; at 300 MPa, most bacteria and multicellular organisms die.

Comments on the eyes of tardigrades
Arthropod Structure & Development, 2007A survey is given on the scarce information on the visual organs (eyes or ocelli) of Tardigrada. Many Eutardigrada and some Arthrotardigrada, namely the Echiniscidae, possess inverse pigment-cup ocelli, which are located in the outer lobe of the brain, and probably are of cerebral origin.

Dormancy in Freshwater Tardigrades
2019For more than two centuries, tardigrades have been well known for their ability to undergo dormancy. However, this capability has been well studied mainly in the so-called limnoterrestrial species, i.e., in the species colonizing moist terrestrial habitats, such as mosses, lichens, and leaf litter.

Tardigrades (water bears) are microscopic animals walking slowly with four pairs of legs, comprising the phylum Tardigrada, which is closely related to other ecdysozoans such as Arthropoda and Onychophora. They dwell in diverse habitats such as terrestrial soil, mosses, lichens, and sediments in freshwater and marine environments.
