The evolution of anthraquinones as an adaptive trait in lichen-forming fungi
Fungi produce a remarkable diversity of chemical compounds to interact with their environment. Lichens—obligate mutualisms comprising fungi, photosynthetic organisms, and bacteria—produce a particularly wide range of secondary compounds with functions including UV protection, anti-herbivory, antimicrobial activity, and metal homeostasis.

Effects of warming on plant uptake of post‐fire nitrogen in an arctic heath tundra
Summary Postfire nitrogen (N) becomes increasingly important with the rising frequency of fires in arctic tundra, and climate warming is expected to accelerate plant recovery following fire. However, how plants differ in utilizing this postfire N and how their postfire N uptake responds to warming remains unknown.

Phylogenetic studies of cyanobacterial lichens [PDF]
Phylogenetic studies of cyanobacterial lichens Lichens are symbiotic assemblages between fungi (mycobiont) and green algae (phycobiont) or/and cyanobacteria (cyanobiont). Fossil records show that lichen-like symbioses occurred already 600 million years
