De Scally, Storme Z.; Makhalanyane, Thulani Peter; Frossard, Aline; Hogg, I.D.; Cowan, Don A. (Elsevier, 2016-12)Climate change has the potential to induce dramatic shifts in the biodiversity and functionality of soil microorganisms in polar hyperarid ecosystems. In these depauperate soil ecosystems, microbial communities are vital ...

Gunnigle, Eoin; Frossard, Aline; Ramond, Jean-Baptiste; Guerrero, Leandro D.; Seely, Mary; Cowan, Don A. (Nature Publishing Group, 2017-01-10)Microbes in hot desert soil partake in core ecosystem processes e.g., biogeochemical cycling of carbon. Nevertheless, there is still a fundamental lack of insights regarding short-term (i.e., over a 24-hour [diel] cycle) ...

Zablocki, Olivier; Adriaenssens, Evelien M.; Frossard, Aline; Seely, Mary; Ramond, Jean-Baptiste; Cowan, Don A. (American Society for Microbiology, 2017-01-12)The Namib Desert in southwest Africa is hyperarid and composed of distinct microbial communities affected by a longitudinal aridity gradient. Here, we report four soil metaviromes from the Namib Desert, assessed using ...

Makhalanyane, Thulani Peter; Valverde, Angel; Gunnigle, Eoin; Frossard, Aline; Ramond, Jean-Baptiste; Cowan, Don A. (Oxford University Press, 2015-03)A significant proportion of the Earth's surface is desert or in the process of desertification. The extreme environmental conditions that characterize these areas result in a surface that is essentially barren, with a ...

Scola, Vincent; Ramond, Jean-Baptiste; Frossard, Aline; Zablocki, Olivier; Adriaenssens, Evelien M.; Johnson, Riegardt M.; Seely, Mary; Cowan, Don A. (Springer, 2018-01)The hyperarid Namib desert is a coastal desert in southwestern Africa and one of the oldest and driest deserts on the planet. It is characterized by a west/east increasing precipitation gradient and by regular coastal fog ...

Gunnigle, Eoin; Ramond, Jean-Baptiste; Frossard, Aline; Seely, Mary; Cowan, Don A. (Elsevier, 2014-08)A co-extraction protocol that sequentially isolates core biopolymer fractions (DNA, RNA, protein) from edaphic microbial communities is presented. In order to confirm compatibility with downstream analyses, bacterial T-RFLP ...

Perez-Mon, Carla; Qi, Weihong; Vikram, Surendra; Frossard, Aline; Makhalanyane, Thulani Peter; Cowan, Don A.; Frey, Beat (Microbiology Society, 2021-04-13)The warming-induced thawing of permafrost promotes microbial activity, often resulting in enhanced greenhouse gas emissions. The ability of permafrost microorganisms to survive the in situ sub-zero temperatures, their ...

Water regime history drives responses of soil Namib Desert microbial communities to wetting events Frossard, Aline; Ramond, Jean-Baptiste; Seely, Mary; Cowan, Don A. (Nature Publishing Group, 2015-07-21)Despite the dominance of microorganisms in arid soils, the structures and functional dynamics of microbial communities in hot deserts remain largely unresolved. The effects of wetting event frequency and intensity on ...
