Although originally designed to answer typical ethnoarchaeological research questions related to the study of mobile societies in arid lands, this work is also relevant in terms of our understanding of human adaptation to extremely arid environments.
On the other hand, in C. dubliniensis hyphal morphogenesis is almost entirely linked to the adaptation to extremely harsh conditions like water supplemented with 10% FCS at 37°C.
Because IDPs often do not aggregate under high- or low-temperature conditions [28], [33], and they can be effective in preventing other proteins from aggregation [31], [32], [34], [35], it was expected that prokaryotes adapted to extremely low (psychrophiles) or extremely high (hyperthermophiles) temperatures have relied on IDPs in their adaptation to these extreme temperatures.
Correlated with their adaptation to an extremely wide variety of habitats is the extremely wide variety of life cycles that fishes display.
However, nitrogen does not appear to be limiting in its natural habitat, and so we hypothesize that another factor, namely adaptation to the extremely high MgCl2 concentration, is responsible for the drift to an AT rich genome in H. walsbyi.
Together these results suggest that VNG0258H is a novel archaeal transcription factor that regulates gene expression to enable adaptation to the extremely oxidative, hypersaline niche of H. salinarum.
Maize (Zea mays ssp mays), a cultivated annual and allogamous species, is a spectacular example of adaptation to an extremely wide range of climatic conditions.
Adaptations to the extremely acidic environment are also seen in the amino acid composition of M. infernorum proteins.
The Thiomicrospira representatives at Lost City must harbor adaptations to the extremely low CO2 concentrations and high pH of Lost City fluids, however.
Its simplicity in design also makes its adaptation to include additional variables extremely feasible.
