Diversity of Flavobacterium spp. in polar aquatic environments
The polar regions suffer from extreme environmental conditions such as low temperatures, freezing-thawing cycli, high UV-irradiation, desiccation and varying light conditions, salinities and nutrient concentrations, and as such these areas are some of the most inhospitable places on earth. However,...
