… in other less extreme aquatic environments (López-Archilla et al., manuscript in preparation). …

The Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR) constitutes a large group of mostly uncultured bacterial
lineages with small cell sizes and limited biosynthetic capabilities. They are thought to be …

In this work, we have characterized the diversity of phytoplanktonic species in a highly
alkaline and hypereutrophic shallow lake, Santa Olalla (southwestern Spain), the evolution of …

Microbial life has adapted to various individual extreme conditions; yet, organisms simultaneously
adapted to very low pH, high salt and high temperature are unknown. We combined …

The characterization of the microbial ecology of the Tinto River, an extreme habitat with an
extremely low pH and a high concentration of heavy metals, revealed an unexpected level of …

Microbial mats have been hypothesized to improve the persistence and the preservation of
organic remains during fossilization processes. We test this hypothesis with long-term …

Cyanobacteria are thought to play a key role in carbonate formation due to their metabolic
activity, but other organisms carrying out oxygenic photosynthesis (photosynthetic eukaryotes) …

The construction of linear transport infrastructure has severe effects on ecosystem functions
and properties, and the restoration of the associated roadslopes contributes to reduce its …

The Crato Formation paleoentomofauna is noticeable for its high abundance, diversity and
morphological fidelity, so the preservational approach of the Ephemeroptera larvae fossils …

The pattern and sequence of the decomposition of the Pipidae African dwarf frog (Hymenochirus
