Isolation of Bacteria from Remote High Altitude Andean Lakes Able to Grow in the Presence of Antibiotics
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2009-01)
High altitude Andean lakes are placed in Puna desert over 4400 above sea level. Completely isolated, they are exposed to extreme environmental factors like high levels of salinity, UV radiation and heavy metals and low ...
First Report on the Plasmidome From a High-Altitude Lake of the Andean Puna
(Frontiers Media SA, 2020-06)
Mobile genetic elements, including plasmids, drive the evolution of prokaryotic genomes through the horizontal transfer of genes allowing genetic exchange between bacteria. Moreover, plasmids carry accessory genes, which ...
Isolation of UV-B resistant bacteria from two high altitude Andean lakes (4,400 m) with saline and non saline conditions
(Microbiology Research Foundation, 2009-12)
Laguna (L.) Negra and L. Verde are high altitude Andean lakes located at the 4,400 m altitude in the Andean desert (Puna) in the Argentine northwest. Both lakes are exposed to extreme weather conditions but differ in ...
UV-Resistant Actinobacteria from High-Altitude Andean Lakes: Isolation, Characterization and Antagonistic Activities
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2017-05)
Polyextremophiles are present in a wide variety of extreme environments in which they must overcome various hostile conditions simultaneously such as high UVB radiation, extreme pHs and temperatures, elevated salt and ...
Water and Flamingo Feces Bacterial Communities from High-Altitude Andean Lakes under Selective Antibiotic Pressure Studied by PCR-DGGE Analyses
(IntechOpen, 2015)
High-altitude Andean lakes are exposed to extreme environmental factors like high salinity, ultraviolet radiation, heavy metals, among others. As it was previously shown, these lakes are not only the habitat of a high ...
Physicochemical Parameters Affecting the Distribution and Diversity of the Water Column Microbial Community in the High-Altitude Andean Lake System of La Brava and La Punta
(MDPI, 2020)
Due to the low incidence of precipitation attributed to climate change, many high-altitude Andean lakes (HAALs) and lagoons distributed along the central Andes in South America may soon disappear. This includes La Brava-La ...

Modern stromatolite ecosystems at alkaline and hipersalyne high-altitude lakes in the Argentinean Puna
(Springer, 2011)
Modern stromatolites have been so far recorded i) an hypersaline region of Hamelin Pool, Shark Bay in Western Australia , ii) shallow subtidal regions at the margin of Exuma Sound in the Bahamas , iii) fresh-water areas ...
