Abstract excerpt
Hydrostatic pressure is a distinctive feature of deep-sea environments, and this thermodynamic parameter has potentially inhibitory effects on organisms adapted to living at atmospheric pressure. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, hydrostatic pressure causes a delay in or cessation of growth....
