Abstract Background Ace Lake is a marine-derived, stratified lake in the Vestfold Hills of East
Antarctica with an upper oxic and lower anoxic zone. Cyanobacteria are known to reside …

Benthic microbial mats dominated by Cyanobacteria are important features of polar lakes.
Although culture-independent studies have provided important insights into the diversity of …

For the first time, the cyanobacterial diversity from microbial mats in lakes of Eastern
Antarctica was investigated using microscopic and molecular approaches. The present …

Cyanobacteria form diverse communities and are important primary producers in Antarctic
freshwater environments, but their geographic distribution patterns in Antarctica and globally …

Cyanobacteria form diverse communities and are important primary producers in Antarctic
freshwater environments, but their geographic distribution patterns in Antarctica and globally …

Cyanobacteria are major primary producers in the polar and alpine regions contributing
significantly to nitrogen and carbon cycles in the cryosphere. Recent advancements in …

Ace lake is a stratified lake in the Vestfold Hills, Antarctica. The presence of a thick ice-cover
for~ 11 months of the year and a strong salinity gradient are responsible for its permanent …

We reconstructed cyanobacterial community structure and phylogeny using DNA that was
isolated from layers of stratified sediments spanning 200 years of lake history in the …

Cyanobacteria form diverse communities and are important primary producers in Antarctic
freshwater environments, but their geographic distribution patterns in Antarctica and globally …

The study of Antarctic cyanobacterial diversity has been mostly limited to morphological
identification and traditional molecular techniques. High‐throughput sequencing (HTS) …
