Modular community structure suggests metabolic plasticity during the transition to polar night in ice-covered Antarctic lakes
High-latitude environments, such as the Antarctic McMurdo Dry Valley lakes, are subject to
seasonally segregated light–dark cycles, which have important consequences for microbial …

Novel chytrid lineages dominate fungal sequences in diverse marine and freshwater habitats
In aquatic environments, fungal communities remain little studied despite their taxonomic
and functional diversity. To extend the ecological coverage of this group, we conducted an in …
