Succession of Cyanobacterial Community Contributes to Bacterial and Fungal Community Assembly in Dryland Biocrusts. [PDF]
Cyanobacteria are key components driving the formation and development of biological soil crusts in dryland ecosystems. Their community distribution differs significantly across stages of biocrust development. The presence of cyanobacteria influences variations in bacterial and fungal communities within biological soil crusts by regulating the ...

Peltigera (Lecanoromycetes) on Mt Kilimanjaro, East Africa
AbstractTropical mountain forests are hotspots of biodiversity that are widely threatened by human population pressure and climate change. However, the cryptogamic species richness of many tropical mountain regions is insufficiently known, the poorly understood biodiversity of tropical African lichens being a prime example.

Brownlielloideae, a new subfamily in the Teloschistaceae (Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota) [PDF]
Brownlielloideae, a new subfamily in the Teloschistaceae, is proposed based on phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ribosomal DNA and 12S SSU mitochondrial DNA sequences. The data indicates that the new subfamily includes eight genera, i.e. Brownliella, Marchantiana and six new genera proposed here, Lazarenkoella, Raesaeneniana, Streimanniella, Tarasginia,
