High-Throughput Sequencing Supports Strong Geographical Patterns in the Cladia aggregata Complex (Ascomycota, Lecanorales) and Identifies the Asian Clade as an Independent Species [PDF]
Journal of FungiThe Cladia aggregata group of lichen-forming fungi comprises multiple species that are difficult to differentiate based on phenotypic characters. It has a wide distribution across several continents, but is most diverse in Australasia.

Living in each other’s pockets: insights into the life cycle of Tremella caloplacae s. l. [PDF]
IMA FungusComplex life-cycles are common among fungi. Dimorphism in basidiomycetes involves alternation between a unicellular yeast phase and a filamentous phase, frequently forming basidiomata.

Mycobiont-specific primers facilitate the amplification of mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal DNA: a focus on the lichenized fungal genus Melanelia (Ascomycota, Parmeliaceae) in Iceland [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2023 The fungal mitochondrial small subunit (mtSSU) ribosomal DNA is one of the most commonly used loci for phylogenetic analysis of lichen-forming fungi, but their primer specificity to mycobionts has not been evaluated.

Characterizing Crustose Lichen Communities—DNA Metabarcoding Reveals More than Meets the Eye
Diversity, 2022 Biodiversity inventories are important for informing land management strategies, conservation efforts, and for biomonitoring studies. For many organismal groups, including lichens, comprehensive, accurate inventories are challenging due to the necessity ...
