The first subantarctic plant virus report: Stilbocarpa mosaic bacilliform badnavirus (SMBV) from Macquarie Island. Polar Biology, 2003 (Ref: 10409)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We report here the finding of a new plant virus, Stilbocarpa mosaic bacilliform badnavirus (SMBV) in Stilbocarpa polaris (Homb. et Jacq.) Gray on subantarctic Macquarie Island. This is the first vascular plant virus reported from any of the remote subantarctic islands…

Mosses surviving on the edge: Origins, genetic diversity, and mutation in Antarctica. Molecular Systematics of Bryophytes. Monographs in Systematic Botany from the Missouri Botanical Garden, 2004 (Ref: 12453)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Mosses are the dominant plant species in continental Antarctica, where they sparsely colonize the limited stony … coastal areas not permanently covered with snow and ice. The few species of mosses present in Antarctica live ‘‘on the … edge’’ for plant life…

DNA sequencing and genetic diversity of the 18S–26S nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacers (ITS) in nine Antarctic moss species Antarctic Science, 2005 (Ref: 12452)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We have sequenced the 18S–26S nuclear ribosomal DNA ITS region from the genome of nine … different moss species from the Ross Sea region of Antarctica. This relatively quick and simple technique … enables these species to be readily distinguished, facilitating their taxonomic identification.
