Exploring the lichenization continuum through the marine tripartite symbiosis of Collemopsidium pelvetiae. [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Premise Symbioses between lichen‐forming fungi and brown algae (phaeophytes) are extremely rare. We investigated the interactions between the marine fungus Collemopsidium pelvetiae and its two photosynthetic partners, the brown alga Pelvetia canaliculata and a cyanobacterial symbiont to address questions on symbiosis biology, lichenization ...
