“…It is generally assumed that fungi live in soil as dormant propagules but areas under study falls in the cold temperate zone of the Himachal Pradesh where temperatures are extremely low that not only restrict microbial enzyme activity but also constrain the availability of liquid water for the hydration of these dormant propagules. (Russell, 1990;Crowe et al, 1992;Wynn-Williams and Edwards, 2000) also made same observations. However, the population of actinomycetes was higher than that of fungi because the former have the capability to metabolize diverse kind of complex compounds left after the decomposition of the organic substances, which are not generally attacked by other microorganisms to derive nutrition and energy (Hadar and Papadopoulou, 2012).…”

“…Knowledge of the terrestrial conditions under which organisms can colonise environments which represent extremes of temperature, radiation insulation, pressure, desiccation, salinity and pH leads to a better understanding of their survival strategies [1,2]. Survival of extremophile colonies in geological matrices and substrates depends fundamentally upon mecha-nisms of avoidance of harmful conditions, for example like UV radiation and the production of protective biochemicals through which the tolerance and adaptation to the hostile environmental conditions can be accomplished [3].…”

“…Several previous studies of extremophilic colonisation have demonstrated the viability of Raman spectroscopy for the in situ determination of extinct or extant biological material in the geological matrix, without involving the separation of the biological colonies from their inorganic mineral host matrices. This approach provides novel information at the molecular level about the important organic/inorganic interactions [1,2,[16][17][18].…”

“…[21,22]), pigments in ancient paintings [23], manuscript and other artifacts [24,25], biogenic minerals [26,27] and biomolecules (e.g. [28]). Of interest to the geologic community, and particularly for planetary exploration, is the possibility to unambiguously identify various minerals on planetary surfaces by their characteristic Raman peaks [6,29,30].…”
