Differences between Barotolerant microorganisms and Barophilic microorganisms

Barotolerant microorganisms

1) They are adversely affected by increased pressure

2) Found in the ocean up to depth of 4KM

3) They survive pressure nearly 400 atm

4) Grow better at 1 atm

Barophilic microorganisms

1) They require or grow more rapidly in the presence of increased pressure

2) They are found on deep ocean floors

3) They survive greater then 400 atm pressure

4) Grow better under high pressure
