One underexplored aspect of microbial growth is the impact of toxic gases transported through the atmosphere. Ammonia is a gas that can supply essential nitrogen but also exert cellular toxicity.
Ancient Antarctic microbial mats harbour viable bacteria that have been exposed to extreme cold and arid conditions for hundreds of years.
Microorganisms are essential players in Earth’s ecosystems, demonstrating remarkable adaptability to harsh conditions including arctic ice caps, deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and high-pressure oceanic zones.
We report the draft genome sequence of a member of a potentially novel genus of Rubrobacteraceae isolated from Golden Dome Cave in Lava Beds National Monument. Members of this family […]
While microbial communities in limestone caves across the world are relatively understood, knowledge of the microbial composition in lava tubes is lagging behind. These caves are found in volcanic regions […]
