Effect of solar radiation on two Antarctic marine bacterial strains
Two Antarctic marine bacterial strains were isolated, characterised and exposed to solar radiation during summer at Potter Cove (King George Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica). The effect of photosynthetically available radiation (PAR), ultraviolet-A (UV-A) and ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B...
