Physiological effects of reduced gravity on bacteria
...tions, examination of responses to conditions like microgravity may offer significant insight into the factors that influence bacterial distribution. In this study, water system bacterial isolates from the ISS were compared to other isolates from corresponding type strains of the same species.
