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.

Detection of Antifungal Endolichenic Fungi and Antifungal Compound [PDF]
The Korean Journal of Microbiology, 2013 To isolate a novel antifungal compound, we obtained 571 kinds of endolichenic fungi from Lichen Bioresources Center and examined their antifungal abilities. Four fungi Stereocaulon sp. (1429), Stereocaulon sp. (1430), Cryptosporiopsis sp. (0156), and Graphis sp.

BioMed Research International, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Lichens are a life form in which algae and fungi have a symbiotic relationship and have various biological activities, including anti‐inflammatory and antiproliferative activities. This is the first study to investigate the anti‐inflammatory activity of a Phlebia sp.

PacBio amplicon sequencing for metabarcoding of mixed DNA samples from lichen herbarium specimens [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2019 The detection and identification of species of fungi in the environment using molecular methods heavily depends on reliable reference sequence databases. However, these databases are largely incomplete in terms of taxon coverage, and a significant effort

On the move: sloths and their epibionts as model mobile ecosystems
Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2638-2660, December 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Sloths are unusual mobile ecosystems, containing a high diversity of epibionts living and growing in their fur as they climb slowly through the canopies of tropical forests. These epibionts include poorly studied algae, arthropods, fungi, and bacteria, making sloths likely reservoirs of unexplored biodiversity.
