Transcriptomic and metatranscriptomic studies have yielded important insights into the
mechanisms and metabolisms that allow psychrophiles to remain active in cold …

The ability of psychrophiles to survive and proliferate at low temperatures implies that they
have overcome key barriers inherent to permanently cold environments. These challenges …

The ability of cold-adapted microorganisms (generally referred to as psychrophiles) to
survive is the result of molecular evolution and adaptations which, together, counteract the …

The Earth's permanently cold biosphere is known to harbour abundant microbial biomass
and represents a rich resource for the discovery of novel cold-adapted microorganisms …

Psychrophiles are organisms living in extremely cold conditions within the temperature
range of− 20° C to+ 10° C. These organisms survive in harsh environment by modulating …

Approximately one fourth of the Earth's Northern Hemisphere is underlain by permafrost,
earth materials (soil, organic matter, or bedrock), that has been continuously frozen for at …

Permafrost is an extreme habitat yet it hosts microbial populations that remain active over
millennia. Using permafrost collected from a Pleistocene chronosequence (19 to 33 ka), we …

Thawing of permafrost soils is expected to stimulate microbial decomposition and respiration
of sequestered carbon. This could, in turn, increase atmospheric concentrations of …

Considering that 25% of Earth's terrestrial surface is underlain by permafrost (ground that
has been continuously frozen for at least 2 years), our understanding of the diversity of …

Permanently frozen soil, or permafrost, covers a large portion of the Earth's terrestrial surface
and represents a unique environment for cold-adapted microorganisms. As permafrost …
