\n Ionizing radiation is considered the main factor limiting preservation of putative microorganisms and biomarkers in cryogenic space bodies, restricting interplanetary transportation of living cells. Defining the radioresistance limits of Earth-bound life is challenging but necessary to assessing the likelihood of the existence of life outside of Earth for the purpose of planning space missions and developing methods for detecting life. The viability of native soil microbial communities under effects of ionizing radiation has not been sufficiently investigated. According to previous studies, soil should be sterilized with 15–100 kGy doses of gamma radiation, depending on the irradiation conditions. However, the limits of radioresistance of the cells in situ have not been reliably elucidated. We performed gamma irradiation of soddy–podzolic soil (Moscow region, Russia)at doses ranging from 148 kGy to 1.25 MGy to assess the radioresistance of the soil microbial community by means of culturing, epifluorescence microscopy (EFM), multisubstrate testing, and gas chromatography–mass spectrometry of lipid biomarkers. The soil microbial community exhibited high resistance to the effects of gamma radiation. Culturable bacteria were isolated after exposure to 148 kGy. After exposure to 320 kGy, there were no cells capable of proliferation on nutrient media, although many prokaryotic cells (∼3 × 106 cells/g), without visible signs of DNA damage, were observed in situ using EFM. These data suggest a transition into a viable but nonculturable state. Thus, the results obtained indicate that microbial communities radioresistance (and microorganisms in general)in natural habitats is significantly underestimated. © 2019 Elsevier Ltd\n

\n One of the prior current astrobiological tasks is revealing the limits of microbial resistance to extraterrestrial conditions. Much attention is paid to ionizing radiation, since it can prevent the preservation and spread of life outside the Earth. The aim of this research was to study the impact of accelerated electrons ( 1 MeV) as component of space radiation on microbial communities in their natural habitat—the arid soil and ancient permafrost, and also on the pure bacterial cultures that were isolated from these ecotopes. The irradiation was carried out at low pressure ( 0.01 Torr) and low temperature (–130°C) to simulate the conditions of Mars or outer space. High doses of 10 kGy and 100 kGy were used to assess the effect of dose accumulation in inactive and hypometabolic cells, depending on environmental conditions under long-term irradiation estimated on a geological time scale. It was shown that irradiation with accelerated electrons in the applied doses did not sterilize native samples from Earth extreme habitats. The data obtained suggests that viable Earth-like microorganisms can be preserved in the anabiotic state for at least 1.3 and 20 million years in the regolith of modern Mars in the shallow subsurface layer and at a 5 m depth, respectively. In addition, the results of the study indicate the possibility of maintaining terrestrial like life in the ice of Europa at a 10 cm depth for at least  170 years or for at least 400 thousand years in open space within meteorites. It is established that bacteria in natural habitat has a much higher resistance to in situ irradiation with accelerated electrons when compared to their stability in pure isolated cultures. Thanks to the protective properties of the heterophase environment and the interaction between microbial populations even radiosensitive microorganisms as members of the native microbial communities are able to withstand very high doses of ionizing radiation. © 2018 by the authors.

Within uncertainties, the neon budget of the lake is balanced, the neon supplied to the lake by the melting of glacier ice being compensated by the neon exported by lake ice. The helium concentration in the lake is about 12 times more than in the glacier ice, with a measured 3He/4He ratio of 0.12 ± 0.01 Ra. This shows that Lake Vostok's waters are enriched by a terrigenic helium source. The 3He/4He isotope ratio of this helium source was determined. Its radiogenic value (0.057 × Ra) is typical of an old continental province, ruling out any magmatic activity associated with the tectonic structure of the lake. It corresponds to a low geothermal heat flow estimated at 51 mW/m2. ©2018. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved.},\r\n}

\n We analyzed helium and neon in 24 samples from between 3,607 and 3,767 m (i.e., down to 2 m above the lake-ice interface) of the accreted ice frozen to the ceiling of Lake Vostok. Within uncertainties, the neon budget of the lake is balanced, the neon supplied to the lake by the melting of glacier ice being compensated by the neon exported by lake ice. The helium concentration in the lake is about 12 times more than in the glacier ice, with a measured 3He/4He ratio of 0.12 ± 0.01 Ra. This shows that Lake Vostok's waters are enriched by a terrigenic helium source. The 3He/4He isotope ratio of this helium source was determined. Its radiogenic value (0.057 × Ra) is typical of an old continental province, ruling out any magmatic activity associated with the tectonic structure of the lake. It corresponds to a low geothermal heat flow estimated at 51 mW/m2. ©2018. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved.\n

\n Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (guar) belongs to the family Fabaceae and is one of the promising crops for cultivation in Russia. Beans contain a large number of protein and fatty oil content, green beans can serve as a valuable source of food and feeds (as seed flour and not ground granulated feeds), but the plant is more in demand as a source of guar gum, which is a polysaccharide formed by galactose and mannose (galactomannan) and is contained in the endosperm of the seeds of this plant. Guar gum is widely used in various industries: food, textile, cosmetic, oil and other. Guar comes from India, where approximately 80 % of the world's production of guar gum is obtained. However, due to high demand, the plant is cultivated throughout the world in areas with a suitable climate (the USA, Sudan, Kenya, Pakistan, Australia), including in the south of the Russian Federation. It is known that the productivity of leguminous crops depends not only on climatic conditions, but also on the effectiveness of symbiosis of plants with nodule bacteria (rhizobia), which is determined by the nitrogen-fixing activity and competitiveness of strains, as well as their complementarity to a particular variety. The use of rhizobia for inoculation of plants is especially important when they are introduced to new habitats, so knowledge of its microsymbionts is necessary for successful cultivation of guar in Russia. This paper is the first to report on isolation of the nodule bacteria of the species Bradyrhizobium elkanii from root nodules of the guar plants grown in a pot experiment with the use of soil samples from India. We determined the taxonomic position and genetic heterogeneity of the isolated strains. The 16S rRNA gene (rrs), ITS-region between the 16S and 23S rDNA and three “housekeeping” genes atpD, dnaK and recA of 10 isolates of nodule bacteria were sequenced. According to the results of the rrs sequence analysis, all isolates are assigned to the species Bradyrhizobium elkanii (family Bradyrhizobiaceae), whose representatives are microsymbionts of a wide range of leguminous plants, including the tribe Indigofereae, to which the guar belongs. However, the representatives of the species were not previously described as a microsymbiont of Сyamopsis tetragonoloba. Sequencing of the ITS-region and the “housekeeping” genes confirmed the species identity of the isolates and demonstrated their genetic heterogeneity. Thus, the study of nodule bacteria from guar has expanded our knowledge of the phylogeny of its microsymbionts and will allow us in the future to select the most effective strains that improve nitrogen nutrition and plant growth. Knowledge of the rhizobial microsymbionts of guar will help maximize the symbiotic potential of this agronomically valuable culture for its stable and highly productive cultivation. © 2018 Russian Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

\n The question \"Are we alone in the Universe?\" is perhaps the most fundamental one that affects mankind. How can we address the search for life in our Solar System? Mars, Enceladus and Europa are the focus of the search for life outside the terrestrial biosphere. While it is more likely to find remnants of life (fossils of extinct life) on Mars because of its past short time window of the surface habitability, it is probably more likely to find traces of extant life on the icy moons and ocean worlds of Jupiter and Saturn. Nevertheless, even on Mars there could still be a chance to find extant life in niches near to the surface or in just discovered subglacial lakes beneath the South Pole ice cap. Here, the different approaches for the detection of traces of life in the form of biosignatures including pre-biotic molecules will be presented. We will outline the required infrastructure for this enterprise and give examples of future mission concepts to investigate the presence of life on other planets and moons. Finally, we will provide suggestions on methods, techniques, operations and strategies for preparation and realization of future life detection missions.

\n This research aimed to investigate the viability and biodiversity of microbial communities within ancient Arctic permafrost after exposure to a gamma-radiation dose of 100 kGy at low temperature (− 50 °C), low pressure (1 Torr) and dehydration conditions. The main objective was to assess the possibility for long-term survival of Earth-bound microorganisms in the subsurface of Martian regolith or inside small space bodies at constant absorption and accumulation of the gamma radiation dose. Investigated microbial communities had shown high resistance to a simulated Martian environment. After irradiation the total count of prokaryotic cells and number of metabolically active bacterial cells remained at the control level, while the number of bacterial CFUs decreased by 2 orders of magnitude, and the number of metabolically active cells of archaea decreased threefold. Besides, the abundance of culturable bacteria after irradiation was kept at a high level: not less than 3.7 × 105 cells/g. Potential metabolic activity of irradiated microbial communities in general were higher than in the control sample. A fairly high biodiversity of bacteria was detected in the exposed sample of permafrost, although the microbial community structure underwent significant changes after irradiation. In particular, actinobacteria populations of the genus Arthrobacter, which was not revealed in the control samples, became predominant in bacterial communities following the exposure. The results of the study testify that long-term preservation of microbial life inside Martian permafrost is possible. The data obtained can also be evaluated from the perspective of the potential for discovering viable Earth-bound microorganisms on other objects in the Solar system and inside of small bodies in outer space. © 2017, Springer Japan KK.\n

For comparison, results obtained by earlier molecular microbiological studies of accretion ice are included in this study, with the focus on thermophiles and an unknown bacterial phylotype. A description of two Lake Vostok penetrations is presented for the first time from the point of view of possible clean water sampling.

\n This article examines the question of the possible existence of microbial life inhabiting the subglacial Lake Vostok buried beneath a 4 km thick Antarctic ice sheet. It represents the results of analysis of the only available frozen lake water samples obtained upon the first lake entry and subsequent re-coring the water frozen within the borehole. For comparison, results obtained by earlier molecular microbiological studies of accretion ice are included in this study, with the focus on thermophiles and an unknown bacterial phylotype. A description of two Lake Vostok penetrations is presented for the first time from the point of view of possible clean water sampling. Finally, the results of current studies of Lake Vostok frozen water samples are presented, with the focus on the discovery of another unknown bacterial phylotype w123-10 distantly related to the above-mentioned unknown phylotype AF532061 detected in Vostok accretion ice, both successfully passing all possible controls for contamination. The use of clean-room facilities and the establishment of a contaminant library are considered to be prerequisites for research on microorganisms from Lake Vostok. It seems that not yet recorded microbial life could exist within the Lake Vostok water body. In conclusion, the prospects for searching for lake inhabitants are expressed with the intention to sample the lake water as cleanly as possible in order to make sure that further results will be robust. © 2015 The Author(s) Published by the Royal Society.

\n The objective was to estimate the genuine microbial content of ice samples from refrozen water (accretion ice) from the subglacial Lake Vostok (Antarctica) buried beneath the 4-km thick East Antarctic ice sheet. The samples were extracted by heavy deep ice drilling from 3659 m below the surface. High pressure, a low carbon and chemical content, isolation, complete darkness and the probable excess of oxygen in water for millions of years characterize this extreme environment. A decontamination protocol was first applied to samples selected for the absence of cracks to remove the outer part contaminated by handling and drilling fluid. Preliminary indications showed the accretion ice samples to be almost gas free with a low impurity content. Flow cytometry showed the very low unevenly distributed biomass while repeated microscopic observations were unsuccessful. We used strategies of Ancient DNA research that include establishing contaminant databases and criteria to validate the amplification results. To date, positive results that passed the artifacts and contaminant databases have been obtained for a pair of bacterial phylotypes only in accretion ice samples featured by some bedrock sediments. The phylotypes included the chemolithoautotrophic thermophile Hydrogenophilus thermoluteolus and one unclassified phylotype. Combined with geochemical and geophysical considerations, our results suggest the presence of a deep biosphere, possibly thriving within some active faults of the bedrock encircling the subglacial lake, where the temperature is as high as 50 °C and in situ hydrogen is probably present. Our approach indicates that the search for life in the subglacial Lake Vostok is constrained by a high probability of forward-contamination. Our strategy includes strict decontamination procedures, thorough tracking of contaminants at each step of the analysis and validation of the results along with geophysical and ecological considerations for the lake setting. This may serve to establish a guideline protocol for studying extraterrestrial ice samples. © 2010 COSPAR. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.\n

Particular attention is drawn to Antarctic and Arctic analog sites where progress in these latter areas has been significant in recent years. © 2010 COSPAR. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

\n A preliminary study has demonstrated that the structure and species composition of microbial communities associated with events of dust deposition from the Sahara Desert to the Mont Blanc glacier varied considerably between samples originating from different time periods. Even for depositions within a single month, the dominant microbial phylotypes and candidates to colonize the snow pack were different. It is therefore highly probable that the structure and species composition of microbial communities will be different between any events of the kind. Apparently, the phenomenon does not correlate with the time the dust stays in the snow cover and consequently with the probable development of microorganisms in situ (three months, one month, and one week). The reasons for the variation may be the differences in conditions in the epicenter of a specific North African dust storm, as well as the history of the dust transport in the atmosphere. The candidates for joining the snow biome of Mont Blanc turned out to be different for three dust events (DEs) and belong to different, mostly minor, phylotypes related to Crossiella cryophilus (Actinobacteria), Devosia limi (α-Proteobacteria), Deinococcus claudionis Deinococcus-Thermus), Anabaena sp. (Cyanobacteria), and Hymenobacter soli (Bacteroidetes). Since all these phylotypes have been previously isolated from soil samples of the Antarctic and Arctic, Arctic snow and ice, and the Alpine belt soils and sedimentary rocks of the glacier bed, they were tentatively ascribed to the group of snow pack colonizers. © 2011 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.\n

\n This paper reports the first rare earth element (REE) concentrations in accreted ice refrozen from sub-glacial Lake Vostok (East Antarctica). REE were determined in various sections of the Vostok ice core in order to geochemically characterize its impurities. Samples were obtained from accreted ice and, for comparison, from the upper glacier ice of atmospheric origin (undisturbed, disturbed and glacial flour ice). REE concentrations ranged between 0.8-56 pg g-1 for Ce and 0.0035-0.24 pg g-1 for Lu in glacier ice, and between <0.1-24 pg g-1 for Ce and <0.0004-0.02 pg g-1 for Lu in accreted ice. Interestingly, the REE concentrations in the upper accreted ice (AC1; characterized by visible aggregates containing a mixture of very fine terrigenous particles) and in the deeper accreted ice (AC2; characterized by transparent ice) are lower than those in fresh water and seawater, respectively. We suggest that such ultra-low concentrations are unlikely to be representative of the real REE content in Lake Vostok, but instead may reflect phase exclusion processes occurring at the ice/water interface during refreezing. In particular, the uneven spatial distribution (on the order of a few cm) and the large range of REE concentrations observed in AC1 are consistent with the occurrence/absence of the aggregates in adjacent ice, and point to the presence of solid-phase concentration/exclusion processes occurring within separate pockets of frazil ice during AC1 formation. Interestingly, if the LREE enrichment found in AC1 was not produced by chemical fractionation occurring in Lake Vostok water, this may reflect a contribution of bedrock material, possibly in combination with aeolian dust released into the lake by melting of the glacier ice. Collectively, this valuable information provides new insight into the accreted ice formation processes, the bedrock geology of East Antarctica as well as the water chemistry and circulation of Lake Vostok.\n

\n The 3561 m Vostok ice core sample originating from the subglacial Lake Vostok accretion (frozen lake water) ice with sediment inclusions was thoroughly studied by various means to confirm the presence of the thermophile bacterium Hydrogenophilus thermoluteolus reported earlier in the 3607 m accretion ice sample. PCR and molecular-phylogenetic analyses performed in two independent laboratories were made using different 16S rRNA gene (rrs) targeted primers. As a result, rrs-targeted PCR permitted to recover several very closely related clones with a small genetic distance to Hydrogenophilus thermoluteolus (< 1%). In addition, RubisCO (cbbL or rbcL) and NiFe-Hydrogenase (hoxV or hupL) targeted PCR have also allowed to recover sequences highly related to Hydrogenophilus thermoluteolus. All these results point to the presence of thermophilic chemoautotrophic microorganisms in Lake Vostok accretion ice. They presumably originate from deep faults in the bedrock cavity containing the lake in which episodes of seismotectonic activity would release debris along with microbial cells.\n

\n Fusarium langsethiae was recently described to accommodate \"powdery\" isolates of Fusarium poae, which morphologically resemble F. poae, but whose metabolite profile is similar to that of Fusarium sporotrichioides. In order to investigate the phylogenetic relationship of F. langsethiae to closely related species, we sequenced the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions 1 and 2 and part of the intergenic spacer (IGS) region of the rDNA cluster and part of the β-tubulin gene from 109 strains of F. poae, F. sporotrichioides, F. langsethiae and Fusarium kyushuense from different geographic origin. Sequence analysis of ITS1 and 2 was unable to separate all F. sporotrichioides strains from F. langsethiae strains. Sequence analysis of β-tubulin distinguished all four species, but it did not resolve the phylogenetic relationship between these two species. Sequence analysis of the IGS region distinguished the four species and led to a higher number of subgroups of the individual species, of which that of F. sporotrichioides var. minus isolates was even better supported than that of F. poae and F. langsethiae. Neighbor-joining and POY analyses of all combined sequences reliably separated all species studied, including F. langsethiae, clearly from F. sporotrichioides. The high intraspecific variability of the IGS sequences were found useful to group isolates according to their geographic origin. These results are in accordance with the results of the UP-PCR hybridization analysis. In summary, our data offer molecular support for the description of F. langsethiae as a new species in section Sporotrichiella. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.\n

\n There are four species of 'pygmaeus' microphallids, namely Microphallus pygmaeus, M. piriformes, M. pseudopygmaeus and M. triangulatus (Trematoda: Microphallidae) which are parasites of marine birds and their sporocysts give rise to transmissible metacercariae inside littoral gastropods (mostly littorines). Universally primed polymerase chain reaction (UP-PCR) showed no apparent pattern between genetic diversity of the metacercariae as estimated by genomic banding profiles and their geographic region or molluscan host species. At the same time UP-PCR product cross-hybridization showed that M. pseudopygmaeus and M. triangulatus are genetically very similar, indicating that these taxa represent one species complex. In contrast, M. pygmaeus and M. piriformes are genetically well separated from each other and also from the pseudopygmaeus-triangulatus complex. Scanning electron microscopy of ventral spines, and analyses of spine angles and the number of teeth per spine, showed that all species differed significantly from one another. It was concluded that M. piriformes represents the original western member of the 'pygmaeus' group. Microphallus pygmaeus probably diverged from M. piriformes as it progressively specialized for sea duck final hosts. Microphallus pseudopygmaeus and M. triangulatus diverged from each other and the piriformes-pygmaeus ancestral line relatively recently. Microphallus pseudopygmaeus specialized for adoption of a wide range of gastropod host species and M. triangulatus developed morphofunctional specialization associated with final host exploitation.\n

\n For the first time the UP-PCR technique with its hybridization assay was applied to trypanosomatids isolated from insects and plants, 13 isolates of trypanosomatids from insects (eight isolates from Russia, one from Czech Republic and four reference cultures) and three plant isolates were analyzed. By the cross dot blot hybridization of UP-PCR products it was demonstrated that most trypanosomatids except for Wallaceina branch and two species of Leptomonas genera are quite distant from each other and the degree of relationship cannot be resolved by PCR with random primers. The methods used allowed segregation of all trypanosomatids tested into 12 separate genospecies (natural groups) with very different genomic structure. Wallaceina together with two others isolates and two Leptomonas formed separate groups. Therefore, separate taxon status for Wallaceina and two Leptomonas species as well as heterogeneity of Leptomonas, Herpetomonas and Crithidia genera are proposed. The low host specificity of insect trypanosomatids has been demonstrated - two isolates of parasites from different insect orders are more similar than isolates from the same insect species. Isolation of occasional parasite or mixed parasite populations in laboratory culture is discussed. It may be proposed from the data obtained that the genera existing now do not reflect the real biodiversity of trypanosomatids and the current generic systematics of trypanosomatids have to be reviewed. Additional experiments involving a large number of new isolates are necessary to resolve this problem.\n

The dendrograms of 14 trypanosomatids cultures from insects and 3 cultures from plants derived from genetic distances were obtained. Wide specificity of insect trypanosomatids is demonstrated - for example two isolates of parasites from different insects orders appeared to be more similiar than isolates from the same host insect species.

\n The results of the first using of universal primer - polimerase chain reaction (UP-PSR) for the classification of trypanosomatids from insects and plants are presented. The dendrograms of 14 trypanosomatids cultures from insects and 3 cultures from plants derived from genetic distances were obtained. Wide specificity of insect trypanosomatids is demonstrated - for example two isolates of parasites from different insects orders appeared to be more similiar than isolates from the same host insect species. The reality of genus Proteomonas is confirmed. The results demonstrate the high level of heterogeneity of the isolates referring to the genus Leptomonas which seems to be an artificial group. It is obvious that the amount of existing genera is not enough for the description of trypanosomatids biodiversity. The applied method allows to obtain the hierarchical clusters of isolates. Thus, the system of insects trypanosomatids may be discussed in terms of traditional taxonomy.\n

\n Universally primed PCR (UP-PCR) fingerprinting combined with UP-PCR product cross hybridization, and ITSI ribotyping were used to study the genetic relatedness of strains of Trichoderma and Gliocladium for two purposes: (1) to evaluate the ability of the methods to discriminate closely related strains and as tools to group strains which is necessary to facilitate; (2) identification of markers for development of specific detection assays for selected strains. Included among the strains were one T. harzianum, two T. virens, and one G. roseum that had been selected previously for their antagonistic ability against soil-borne phytopathogens. Similarity among strains, found by cross dot blot hybridization using UP-PCR amplification products, was used to group them into 15 genetic entities. ITS1 ribotyping of the strains was performed by digestion of the PCR amplified rDNA spacer region and electrophoresis of the products. The differences obtained from ribotyping as well as the differences in mobility of the intact spacer region were used for grouping of the strains. The UP-PCR hybridization groups and the ITS1 based groups proved to be consistent, but the resolution of the UP-PCR based approach was superior. The results demonstrate that the combination of UP-PCR and ribotyping can aid in clarifying species distinction in Trichoderma and Gliocladium and has the potential to become a valuable tool for studies of diversity and genetic structure of populations of these fungi. Furthermore, identification of single strains by the specific UP-PCR fingerprint seems feasible.\n
