Tardigrada (water bears) are a group of small invertebrates known for their ability to survive
extreme desiccation by entering an anhydrobiotic state. This state is characterized by the …

Tardigrades are renowned for their ability to enter the extremotolerant state of latent life
known as cryptobiosis. While it is widely accepted that cryptobiosis can be induced by …

Tardigrades are microscopic invertebrates, which are capable of withstanding extreme
environmental conditions, including high levels of radiation. A Tardigrade protein, Dsup …

Tardigrades are rarely included in large biodiversity surveys, mainly because of the
impracticalities that follow larger sampling and identification of these microscopic animals …

The Antarctic region has been experiencing some of the planet's strongest climatic changes,
including an expected increase of the land temperature. The potential effects of this warming …

The tardigrade Ramazzottius varieornatus has remarkable resilience to a range of
environmental stresses. In this study, we have characterised two members of the small heat …

Subzero temperatures are among the most significant factors defining the distribution of
organisms, yet, certain taxa have evolved to overcome this barrier. The microscopic …

To thrive in harsh environments, tardigrades have evolved the ability to enter the quiescent
state of cryptobiosis, often characterized by transition into a so-called 'tun'. Here, we …

Increasing temperature influences the habitats of various organisms, including microscopic
invertebrates. To gain insight into temperature-dependent changes in tardigrades, we …

Tardigrades are known for their ability to survive extreme conditions. Reports indicate that
tardigrade thermal tolerance is enhanced in the desiccated state; however, these reports …
