Breaking into nature's secret medicine cabinet: lichens - a biochemical goldmine ready for discovery. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Secondary metabolites are a crucial source of bioactive compounds playing a key role in the development of new pharmaceuticals. Recently, biosynthetic research has benefited significantly from progress on various fronts, including reduced sequencing costs, improved genome/metabolome mining strategies, and expanding tools/databases to compare ...

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the photobiont microalga Trebouxia sp. 'A48' from the lichen Xanthoria parietina. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Lichens are symbiotic assemblies consisting of multiple organisms, chiefly a fungus and a photosynthetic microorganism, or photobiont. Among diverse photobionts, the most prevalent is the chlorophyte alga Trebouxia. We produced a chromosome‐level assembly of Trebouxia sp. ‘A48’, a photobiont of Xanthoria parietina. The genome was assembled into

Genomic and Ecological Flexibility Shape the Global Distribution of a Black Fungus. [PDF]
Environ MicrobiolGraphical abstract illustrating the integration of ecological and genomic data to explain the global adaptation of the black fungus Elasticomyces elasticus. ABSTRACT Black fungi are among the most stress‐resistant organisms known, yet the genetic and ecological foundations of their extraordinary resilience remain poorly understood.

Two new lichenicolous species of Arthonia (Ascomycota: Arthoniomycetes) from Tasmania
Folia Cryptogamica Estonica, 2023 Eight lichenicolous species of Arthonia from Tasmania are treated. Two are described as new: A. aurantia Kantvilas & Motiej., which infects the thallus of a Leprocaulon-like lichen and is characterised by vivid orange, K+ magenta ascomata, 0.07−0.1(−0.15) mm wide, and 1-septate, macrocephalic ascospores, 10−12.5(−13.5) × 4−5.5 μm; and A ...

Photobiont switching causes changes in the reproduction strategy and phenotypic dimorphism in the Arthoniomycetes [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 AbstractPhylogenetic analyses using mtSSU and nuITS sequences of Buellia violaceofusca (previously placed in Lecanoromycetes), a sterile, sorediate lichen having a trebouxioid photobiont, surprisingly prove that the species is conspecific with Lecanographa amylacea (Arthoniomycetes), a fertile, esorediate species with a trentepohlioid photobiont. These

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023 Our study found that grazing in fragile ecosystems had a stronger effect on rhizosphere soil microorganisms than in non‐rhizosphere soil. The restoration and protection of rhizosphere microbial community should be emphasized when considering the restoration of degraded grassland.
