    • Antarctic yeasts: analysis of their freeze-thaw tolerance and production of antifreeze proteins, fatty acids ... 
      Villarreal, Pablo; Carrasco, Mario; Barahona, Salvador; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo (BMC, 2018-07-05)
      Background: Microorganisms have evolved a number of mechanisms to thrive in cold environments, including the production of antifreeze proteins, high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids, and ergosterol. In this work, ...
    • Cold tolerance mechanisms of two arthropods from the andean range of Central Chile: agathemera crassa ... 
      Cubillos, Claudio; Cáceres, Juan Carlos; Villablanca, Cristopher; Villarreal, Pablo; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Cabrera Paucar, Ricardo; Graether, Steffen P.; Veloso Iriarte, Claudio (Elsevier, 2018-05)
      Two strategies have been described for cold tolerance in arthropods: (1) freeze-tolerant organisms, which can survive the formation of ice crystals and (2) freeze-avoidant organisms, which prevent the ice crystal formation ...
    • Identification and characterization of yeasts isolated from the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula 
      Troncoso, Evelin; Barahona, Salvador; Carrasco, Mario; Villarreal, Pablo; Alcaíno Gorman, Jennifer; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor; Baeza Cancino, Marcelo (Springer Verlag, 2017)
      © 2016, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. Antarctica is considered one of the most extreme environments on Earth because of its low temperatures, dryness, high incidence of solar radiation and low nutrient availability. ...
    • Molecular characterization of totiviruses in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous 
      Baeza Cancino, Marcelo; Bravo, Natalia; Sanhueza, Mario; Flores, Oriana; Villarreal, Pablo; Cifuentes Guzmán, Víctor (2012)
      Abstract. Background: Occurrence of extrachromosomal dsRNA elements has been described in the red-yeast Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous, with numbers and sizes that are highly variable among strains with different geographical ...
