Abstract excerpt
Radiation-resistant microorganisms that survive high doses of ionising radiation serve as valuable models for understanding stress adaptation; however, the genomic determinants underlying extreme radiation tolerance in bacteria from natural environments with high background radiation remain insufficiently characterised. Bacterial isolates from the Chavara-Neendakara HBRA (Kerala, India) were evaluated for...
