Adaptation of Cyanobacteria to the Endolithic Light Spectrum in Hyper-Arid Deserts

In hyper-arid deserts, endolithic microbial communities survive in the pore spaces and cracks of rocks, an environment that enhances water retention and filters UV radiation. The rock colonization zone is enriched in far-red light (FRL) and depleted in visible light. This poses a challenge to cyanob...
