Penicillium jamesonlandense is a novel species from Greenland that grows exceptionally slowly at 25 degrees C and has an optimum temperature for growth of 17-18 degrees C. The novel species is more psychrotolerant than any other Penicillium species described to date. Isolates of this novel species produce a range of secondary metabolites with a high chemical diversity, represented by kojic acid, penicillic acid, griseofulvin, pseurotin, chrysogine, tryptoquivalins and cycloaspeptide. Penicillium ribium, another novel psychrotolerant species from the Rocky Mountains, Wyoming, USA, produces asperfuran, kojic acid and cycloaspeptide. Originally reported from an unidentified Aspergillus species isolated from Nepal, cycloaspeptide A is reported here for the first time from the two novel Penicillium species and two known psychrotolerant species with high chemical diversity, Penicillium soppii and Penicillium lanosum. All species, except P. ribium, produce a combination of cycloaspeptide and griseofulvin. However, P. ribium (3/5 strains) produced the precursor to griseofulvin, norlichexanthone. The type strain of Penicillium jamesonlandense sp. nov. is DAOM 234087(T) (=IBT 21984(T) = IBT 24411(T) = CBS 102888(T)) and the type strain of Penicillium ribium sp. nov. is DAOM 234091(T) (=IBT 16537(T) = IBT 24431(T)).

Endo-β-1,3-glucanase is a glycoside hydrolase (GH) that plays an essential role in the mineralization of β-glucan polysaccharides. In this study, the novel gene encoding an extracellular, non-modular GH16 endo-β-1,3-glucanase (GluH) from PAMC 29290 isolated from Arctic marine sediment was discovered through an analysis of its whole genome sequence and subsequently overexpressed in BL21. The 870-bp GluH gene encoded a protein featuring a single catalytic GH16 domain that shared over 61% sequence identity with uncharacterized endo-β-1,3-glucanases from diverse species, as recorded in the National Center for Biotechnology Information database.

Article Synopsis
- A new bacterial strain, PAMC 29798, was discovered in an Antarctic lichen, characterized as a Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-motile coccobacilli with specific growth conditions.
- It demonstrates acidotolerance and psychrotolerance, thriving at low pH (optimally pH 4.0-6.5) and temperatures (optimally 10-20 °C).
- Phylogenetic analysis places it in the genus Acidisoma and proposes it as a new species named Acidisoma cladoniae, distinguishing it genomically from its close relatives.

Manganese-oxidizing bacteria (MnOB) produce Mn oxide minerals that can be used by humans for bioremediation, but the purpose for the bacterium is less clear. This study describes the isolation and characterization of cold-tolerant MnOB strains isolated from a compost pile in Morris, Minnesota, USA: sp. MS-1 and DSV-1.

The culturable yeast communities in temperate forest soils under the ornithogenic influence were studied in a seasonal dynamic. To investigate the intense ornithogenic influence, conventional and "live" feeders were used, which were attached to trees in the forest and constantly replenished throughout the year. It was found that the yeast abundance in the soil under strong ornithogenic influence reached the highest values in winter compared to the other seasons and amounted to 4.
