title: Temperature optima for bacteria and yeasts from cold-mountain habitats.
abstract: Optimal temperatures for the growth of bacteria and yeasts isolated from several cold-mountain habitats were determined. The lowest optimal temperatures encountered were in the 10-15 degrees C range, even though most of the isolates were obtained from sites at or near 0 degrees C.
