Some psychrophiles Abstract
... The lower temperature limit for psychrophiles is not clearly defined, although a limit of 12°C for reproduction and 20°C for metabolic function has been proposed [9]. Photosynthesis in the Antarctic lichen Umbilicaria aprina has been reported to occur at 17°C [10], and the yeast Rhodotolura glutinis ...
