Bacterial Xerophiles & Xerotolerant Bacteria
List of Bacterial Xerophiles & Xerotolerant Bacterial Neutriphiles by pH range & OGpH
Here organisms are listed first by the upper end of their temperature range, then by OGT, then by the lower end of their temperature range, and for any organisms for which these properties are unknown or the same, they will be listed in alphabetical order.
