Sex in the extremes: lichen-forming fungi

Mycologist, 2005
Lichens are characteristically found in environments subject to extremes of temperature, desiccation and low nutrient status. Despite this sexual structures are often formed in abundance. The underlying mechanisms of sex in lichen-forming fungi are discussed, together with possible ecological reasons for the persistence of sexuality.

New Records of Lichen-Forming Fungi from Kenya

Journal of East African Natural History, 2012
Diversity of tropical lichen-forming fungi, especially crustose lichens is currently poorly known. Since lichens are important bioindicators of air pollution, forest health, and climate change, we addressed the lichen diversity in Kenya. Our study focused on the diversity of lichen-forming fungi in the Mount Kenya montane forests, where we sampled ...

Lichen-forming fungi: potential sources of novel metabolites

Trends in Biotechnology, 1991
The challenge for today's pharmaceutical industry lies in the discovery and development of new, pharmacologically active molecules. Metabolites produced by microorganisms, and fungi in particular, are a resource for which the therapeutic potential has been recognized, but one that remains largely unexplored and unexploited.

Symbioses of Lichen-Forming Fungi with Trentepohlialean Algae

2016
Trentepohliaceae are a distinct lineage of green algae frequently found in associations with lichen-forming fungi. We review the current knowledge about the phenotypic diversity of this group of algae which is complemented by currently available molecular data.

Lichen-Forming Fungi and Their Photobionts

2009
This chapter focuses on peculiarities of lichen symbiosis and of lichen-forming fungi in comparison with non-lichenized taxa, photobiont diversity, photobiont-derived mobile carbohydrates, specificity of lichen symbiosis, modes of dispersal, functional thallus anatomy, mycobiont-photobiont interactions and the role of hydrophobic and hydrophilic fungal

Spores of lichen-forming fungi in the mycoaerosol and their relationships with climate factors

Science of The Total Environment, 2014
Fungal particulates are a dominant component of the bioaerosol, but aerobiological studies traditionally focused on a limited set of fungi having relevance as allergens or plant pathogens. This study first analyzes the occurrence of lichen meiospores in the mycoaerosol, quantitatively evaluating in the atmosphere of an alpine environment the occurrence

Checklist of British Lichen-Forming, Lichenicolous And Allied Fungi

The Lichenologist, 1980
AbstractA new checklist of the lichen-forming, lichenicolous and allied fungi occuring in the British Isles (including Ireland) is presented. The total number of species accepted is 1701, distributed through 294 genera. Of these species 1471 are lichen-forming, 183 lichenicolous, and 47 allied fungi.
