Responses of Cyanobacterial Crusts and Microbial Communities to Extreme Environments of the Stratosphere

Responses of Cyanobacterial Crusts and Microbial Communities to Extreme Environments of the Stratosphere

How microbial communities respond to extreme conditions in the stratosphere remains unclear. To test this effect, cyanobacterial crusts collected from Tengger Desert were mounted to high balloons and briefly exposed (140 min) to high UV irradiation and low temperature in the stratosphere at an altit...
