Résumé :
|
The aim of the conference was firstly to bring together research phycologists for discussions concerning prokaryotic and eukaryotic oxyphototrophic micro-organisms living in extreme environments, and secondly to map the present state of knowledge within this research topic. the volume starts with origin and evolution of life on earth and covers also possibilities of life in extraterrestrial worlds. this opening part introduced by editors is followed by all the most commonly studied stress factors and responses across a broad range of extreme environments and/or marginal ecological situations, specifically: algae in extreme temperatures; algae in habitats with reduced and extreme radiation; algae in soils; algae under desiccation and ionic stress and finally physiological and molecular responses of algae to extreme conditions.
