Solar panels located on high (Arctic and Antarctic) latitudes combine the harshness of the climate with that of the solar exposure. We report here that these polar solar panels are inhabited by similar microbial communities in taxonomic terms, dominated by Hymenobacter spp., Sphingomonas spp. and Ascomycota. Our results suggest that solar panels, even on high latitudes, can shape a microbial ecosystem adapted to irradiation and desiccation.
位于高纬度(北极和南极)的太阳能电池板将恶劣的气候条件与太阳辐射条件结合在一起。我们在这里报告称,从分类学角度来看,这些极地太阳能电池板上栖息着类似的微生物群落,主要由 Hymenobacter spp.、Sphingomonas spp. 和子囊菌门组成。我们的研究结果表明,太阳能电池板,即使在高纬度地区,也可以塑造出适应辐射和干燥的微生物生态系统。
