The Lichen Symbiosis—What is so Spectacular about it? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Lichen mycobionts are typical representatives of their fungal classes but differ from non-lichenized taxa by their manifold adaptations to symbiosis with a population of minute photobiont cells.

Lecania makarevicziae, a new lichen species from Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A new for science species Lecania makarevicziae differing from L. pallida in having knobby to squamulose, blastidiate thallus, in having larger apothecia, in having a dark violet-brown disc, in having a plane disc, in having (1–2–)3-septate ascospores ...

Climate Controls on Carbon Dioxide Fluxes in a High‐Elevation Grassland

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 2, June 2026.
Climate change is significantly influencing high‐elevation grasslands, possibly unbalancing CO2 exchanges and the sink‐source dynamics. Cumulated heat available for plant growth and vegetation cover were identified as the main controllers of phenological development and, via direct or mediated effects, of CO2 fluxes (ER and GPP).

Patterns of Endemism in Lichens: Another Paradigm-Shifting Example in the Lichen Genus Xanthoparmelia from Macaronesia

open access: yesJournal of Fungi
It has long been assumed that lichen-forming fungi have very large distribution ranges, and that endemic species are rare in this group of organisms.

Eisosome ultrastructure and evolution in fungi, microalgae, and lichens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Eisosomes are among the few remaining eukaryotic cellular differentations that lack a defined function(s). These trough-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane have largely been studied in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, in which their associated proteins,

Photophysics of Biological and Biomimetic Sunscreen Molecules

open access: yesChemPhotoChem, Volume 10, Issue 5, May 2026.
Recent photochemical and photophysical research into natural and nature‐inspired UV filter molecules is reviewed, with a focus on the application of these systems in next‐generation sunscreens. The results of time‐resolved UV spectroscopy experiments and theoretical studies are discussed.

Influence of Deadwood, Tree‐Related Microhabitats, and Forest Structural Features on Saproxylic Arthropod Diversity

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
We used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding across 135 temperate forest plots in Germany to examine how deadwood, tree‐related microhabitats (TreMs), and forest structure shape saproxylic arthropod communities. Structural equation modeling revealed that TreM richness and deadwood volume are key predictors of arthropod diversity, highlighting the ...

Fine‐Scale Temporal Dynamics of the Honey Bee Hive Microbiome and Foraging Revealed by Airborne eDNA

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Airborne eDNA collected within honey bee hives reveals diverse plant and microbial communities. While richness remains stable, seasonal shifts in plant and microbiome composition highlight dynamic resource use, demonstrating eDNA's potential for non‐invasive, fine‐scale monitoring of foraging and colony health. ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) has the
