Microbial communities in different Antarctic mineral deposits characterised by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE)
Livingston Island, located at the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula (Fig. 1),is characterised by an oceanic polar climate with temperatures above0°C for 4 months per year and a mean annual precipitation between 400and 500 mm. Under these conditions a soil formation can be observedand lichens, mosses an...
