Exploring the influence of climatic variables on mycobiome composition and community diversity in lichens: insights from structural equation modeling analysis [PDF]
Environmental Microbiome, 2023 Background Lichens are symbiotic organisms composed of a fungus and a photosynthetic partner, which are key ecological bioindicators due to their sensitivity to environmental changes.

Ultramafic specialist lichens persist through flexible symbioses structured by climate-driven filtering and modulated by substrate effects [PDF]
IMA FungusUltramafic substrates impose severe edaphic stress characterised by metal toxicity, nutrient imbalance, and extreme microclimatic conditions, creating spatially fragmented habitats that can shape evolutionary and ecological dynamics of associated ...

Biopesticide Compounds from an Endolichenic Fungus Xylaria sp. Isolated from the Lichen Hypogymnia tubulosa [PDF]
MoleculesEndolichenic fungi represent an important ecological group of microorganisms that form associations with photobionts in the lichen thallus. These endofungi that live in and coevolve with lichens are known for synthesizing secondary metabolites with novel

In Vitro Antiproliferative Activity of Echinulin Derivatives from Endolichenic Fungus Aspergillus sp. against Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
MoleculesThe endolichenic fungus Aspergillus sp. was isolated from the lichen Xanthoparmelia conspersa harvested in France. Aspergillus sp. was grown on a solid culture medium to ensure the large-scale production of the fungus with a sufficient mass of secondary ...

Phylogenetic and morphological analyses of Coniochaeta isolates recovered from Inner Mongolia and Yunnan revealed three new endolichenic fungal species [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2021 Lichens are the result of a symbiotic interaction between fungi (mycobionts) and algae (phycobionts). Aside from mycobionts, lichen thalli can also contain non-lichenised fungal species, such as lichenicolous and endolichenic fungi. For this study, three

Lichen and Its Microbiome as an Untapped Source of Anti-Biofilm Compounds. [PDF]
Chem BiodiversLichens and their associated fungi give rise to the evaluation of several extracts and compounds against biofilms. ABSTRACT Lichen substances have been first described in the 1870s, and around 10 000 compounds have been isolated and characterized. Most of them have been evaluated for their activity on planktonic microorganisms (bacteria and fungi ...
