Environmental DNA (eDNA) detects temporal and habitat effects on community composition and endangered species in ephemeral ecosystems: A case study in vernal pools

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 85-101, January 2023., 2023
Vernal pools are temporary wetlands that can form during a rainy season, often in Mediterranean climates, and serve as ideal testing grounds to understand species detection using eDNA and how biological communities may shift across time and spatial and environmental heterogeneity.

Microbiome in Cladonia squamosa Is Vertically Stratified According to Microclimatic Conditions

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Lichens are miniature ecosystems that contain fungi, microalgae, and bacteria. It is generally accepted that symbiosis between mycobiont and photobiont and microbial contribution to the ecosystem support the wide distribution of lichens in terrestrial ...

A phylogenetic survey of the ascomycete genus Arthrorhaphis (Arthrorhaphidaceae, Lecanoromycetes) including new species in Arthrorhaphis citrinella sensu lato

TAXON, Volume 71, Issue 5, Page 936-962, October 2022., 2022
Abstract The genus Arthrorhaphis is a group of ascomycetes comprising lichenised and non‐lichenised taxa from temperate to arctic‐alpine regions in both hemispheres. Nine species and two infraspecific taxa are currently recognised. Their delimitation, inter‐relationships, and phylogenetic placement remain poorly understood.

Evolutionary biology of lichen symbioses

New Phytologist, Volume 234, Issue 5, Page 1566-1582, June 2022., 2022
Summary Lichens are the symbiotic outcomes of open, interspecies relationships, central to which are a fungus and a phototroph, typically an alga and/or cyanobacterium. The evolutionary processes that led to the global success of lichens are poorly understood.

A culture‐independent approach to understanding the role of soil fungal communities in Bromus tectorum stand failure

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 10, Issue 1, February 2021., 2021
Metabarcoding via targeted ITS sequencing was used to characterize fungal communities in cheatgrass soils affected by stand failure in multiple areas. Analysis of the data confirmed key differences in the overall community composition between native communities and those affected by stand failure.

Assessment of microbiota present on a Portuguese historical stone convent using high‐throughput sequencing approaches

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 1067-1084, June 2020., 2020
A multianalytical approach based on culture‐dependent methods, high‐throughput sequencing, and scanning electron microscopy was implemented to characterize the microbiota on stone of the Convent of Christ (Tomar, Portugal). The biocolonizer agents detected induce aesthetic damages and structural alterations on these materials, promoting the appearance ...

Global Distribution and Future Projections of Functional Groups Within Extremotolerant Soil Fungi

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
Ecological lifestyles determine the global distribution and future redistribution of extremotolerant soil fungi. ABSTRACT Black fungi are often described as ubiquitous specialists of harsh environments (extremotolerant), yet how their ecological lifestyles vary across environmental gradients remains poorly understood. Here, we use a global soil dataset

Taxonomic investigation of Abrothallus (Abrothallales, Ascomycota) species associated with lichen genera Ramalina and Bryoria, including the description of a new species

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 2, February 2026.
The obligately lichenicolous genus Abrothallus consists of approximately 50 species, almost all of which are associated with lichens having foliose, fruticose, or pendulous thalli. This paper focuses on species that grow on strap lichens (Ramalina) providing new insights into their phylogenetic relationships and distribution.
