Carbonate and Phosphate Precipitation by Chromohalobacter marismortui (2006, background): “The precipitation of huntite in brine-soaked mud-flats of lakes (Mutlu et al. 1999), in speleothems (Cañaveras et al. 2001) and in recent hardpans developed on mining residues of sulphide ore deposits (Dill et al. 2002) has been considered a product of microbial activity.”
Antibiotic Resistance Is Prevalent in an Isolated Cave Microbiome (2012, background): “These bacteria were phylogenetically classified by sequencing of the 16 S rRNA gene sequence (Table S2) and spanned several Grampositive and Gram-negatives genera known to be associated with cave environments [21,22,23,24,25,26,27].”
Carbonate Precipitation through Microbial Activities in Natural Environment, and Their Potential in Biotechnology: A Review (2016, background): “Photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria, have been implicated in forming stromatolitic carbonate speleothems in the photic zone of carbonate caves (Cañveras et al., 2001; Léveillé et al., 2007).”
GEOMICROBIOLOGY IN CAVE ENVIRONMENTS: PAST, CURRENT AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES (2007, background): “In doing so, such work can preserve cultural treasures, such as Paleolithic paintings in the caves of northern Spain, where tourist activity altered the cave environment and brought in heterotrophic microorganisms that threaten to damage these images (Cañaveras et al., 2001; Groth et al., 1999; Laiz”
Microbial Diversity in Caves (2016, background): “For this reason, it is believed that this group of microorganisms is involved in biomineralization processes in these ecosystems (Barton et al. 2001; Canaveras et al. 2001; Groth et al. 2001; Jones 2001; Laiz et al. 1999).”
Biomediated Precipitation of Calcium Carbonate Metastable Phases in Hypogean Environments: A Short Review (2003, background): “…study of more than 100 samples from caves and catacombs studied since 1997 has revealed the existence of microbial assemblages, directly or indirectly able to mediate a variety of constructive and/or destructive processes resulting in the formation of distinctive fabrics (Cañaveras et al. 2001).”
