Diversity and identification of heterotrophic bacteria from Antarctic Rocks of the McMurdo Dry Valleys (Ross Desert)

Diversity of endolithic Dry Valley rock microorganisms was studied by evaluating the presence of morphotypes in enrichments. Storage of rock samples for 16 h over dry ice affected the diversity of endolithic organisms, especially that of algae and fungi. Diversity in various samples depended on rock...
