FIRST REPORT OF GENUS PARMELIELLA MÜLL. (PELTIGERALES; LECANOROMYCETES; ASCOMYCOTA) FROM PAKISTAN
When studying lichens in Pakistan, we came across a crustose species with small to moderate squamulose on a thin blackish hypothallus with a dry, rough, gray-brown to the black upper surface.

The genome sequence of a lichen-forming fungus, Platismatia glauca Linnaeus, 1753 [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Platismatia glauca (lichen-forming fungus; Ascomycota; Lecanoromycetes; Lecanorales; Parmeliaceae). The genome sequence is 33.2 megabases in span.

The fruticose genera in the Ramalinaceae (Ascomycota, Lecanoromycetes): their diversity and evolutionary history [PDF]
We present phylogenetic analyses of the fruticose Ramalinaceae based on extensive collections from many parts of the world, with a special focus on the Vizcaíno deserts in north-western Mexico and the coastal desert in Namibia.

Are there conserved biosynthetic genes in lichens? Genome-wide assessment of terpene biosynthetic genes suggests ubiquitous distribution of the squalene synthase cluster [PDF]
Lichen-forming fungi (LFF) are prolific producers of functionally and structurally diverse secondary metabolites, most of which are taxonomically exclusive and play lineage-specific roles.

Metabolic improvements of novel microbial fermentation on black tea by Eurotium cristatum [PDF]
Due to its traditional fermentation, there are obvious limits on the quality improvements in black tea. However, microbial fermentation can provide an abundance of metabolites and improve the flavor of tea.
