Aim. The results of the inventory of species composition of epiphytic lichens and aphyllophoroid fungi on two 1 ha sample plots in lowland floodplain forests are presented. Such integrated studies of these groups of organisms are poorly known.

Diversity of Lecidea (Lecideaceae, Ascomycota) species revealed by molecular data and morphological characters [PDF]
The diversity of lichens, especially crustose species, in continental Antarctica is still poorly known. To overcome difficulties with the morphology based species delimitations in these groups, we employed molecular data (nuclear ITS and mitochondrial ...

Pyrosequencing analysis of fungal assemblages from geographically distant, disparate soils reveals spatial patterning and a core mycobiome [PDF]
Identifying a soil core microbiome is crucial to appreciate the established microbial consortium, which is not usually subjected to change and, hence, possibly resistant/resilient to disturbances and a varying soil context. Fungi are a major part of soil

Volatile emission and biosynthesis in endophytic fungi colonizing black poplar leaves
Plant volatiles play a major role in plant–insect interactions as defense compounds or attractants for insect herbivores. Recent studies have shown that endophytic fungi are also able to produce volatiles and this raises the question of whether these ...

Biodiversity of Fungi in Freshwater Ecosystems of Italy
Fungal biodiversity is still mostly unknown and their presence in particular ecosystems such as freshwater habitats is often underestimated. The ecological role that these fungi play in freshwater environments mainly concerns their activity as ...

Response of Fungal Communities to Anthropogenic Disturbances in a Tropical Forest. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Conversion of forests to agricultural land leads to a decline in soil biodiversity and it affects the ecosystem services that they provide. The rising population around Mt. Kenya forest and an increase in demand for land and forest resources has led to deforestation. However, the impact on fungal communities remains unknown.
