Fungi as environmental bioindicators
Science of The Total Environment, 2023Environmental bioindicators are species or communities of animals, plants, bacteria, fungi, algae, lichens, and planktons whose existence, quantity, and nature can be used to make inferences on the quality of the environment. Bioindicators can be used to detect environmental contaminants by on-site visual inspections or through laboratory analysis ...

Bioindication: The I.A.P. Approach
2002The symbiosis between algae and fungi enables lichens to colonise various apparently hostile places, like high mountains and deserts. However, the sensitive balance between the symbiotic partners can be easily disturbed, as lichens are generally sensitive to environmental alteration such as changes in air humidity (forestry, urbanisation) and air ...

Ornamental plants as sinks and bioindicators
Environmental Technology, 2013Mitigation of urban air pollution is a big challenge, especially for the metropolitan cities of the world. In an Indian metropolis like Delhi, even after the implementation of several control policies, no such remarkable change has been observed in its air quality.

Bioindicators of enhanced nitrogen deposition
Environmental Pollution, 2003Increased deposition of atmospheric N largely from intensive agriculture is affecting biodiversity and the composition of natural and semi-natural vegetation in Europe. The value of species based bioindicators such as the Ellenberg N index and measurements of total tissue N and free amino acids in key plant species, is described with reference to a ...

Bioindicators of Pesticide Contaminations
2020Reducing the economic losses caused by pests, and for improving crop yields, use of pesticides in agriculture is imperative. The continuous use of pesticides in the environment is of great concern as some of them are highly persistant and causes harmful impact on non-target organisms.

Dragonflies (Odonata) as bioindicators of radioactivity
Isotopes in Environmental and Health StudiesBioindicators are living organisms that are successfully used for monitoring changes in the environmental health due to natural and/or anthropogenic influences. Dragonflies (Odonata) are considered to be good indicators of water quality; however, research on dragonflies as potential indicators of radioactivity is scarce.
