Phylogenetic Analysis of Bacteria Preserved in a Permafrost Ice Wedge for 25,000 Years

ABSTRACT Phylogenetic analysis of bacteria preserved within an ice wedge from the Fox permafrost tunnel was undertaken by cultivation and molecular techniques. The radiocarbon age of the ice wedge was determined. Our results suggest that the bacteria in the ice wedge adapted to the frozen conditions...
