Photosynthetic performance in Antarctic lichens with different growth forms reflect the diversity of lichenized algal adaptation to microhabitats

open access: yesPolish Polar Research, 2015
Lichens, as typical obligate associations between lichenized fungi and their photosynthetic partners, are dominant in Antarctica. Three Antarctic lichens, Ochrolechia frigida, Umbilicaria antarctica, and Usnea aurantiacoatra with different growth forms ...

Reference-Based RADseq Unravels the Evolutionary History of Polar Species in ‘the Crux Lichenologorum’ Genus Usnea (Parmeliaceae, Ascomycota)

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
Nearly 90% of fungal diversity, one of the most speciose branches in the tree of life, remains undescribed. Lichenized fungi as symbiotic associations are still a challenge for species delimitation, and current species diversity is vastly underestimated.

A Systemic Model for Understanding Business Interactions With Biodiversity and Ecosystems

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation represent critical threats to human well‐being and economic resilience, challenging businesses to understand and manage their interdependence with natural systems. This study develops a systemic framework—the BioModel—that elucidates the reciprocal relationship between businesses, biodiversity, and ...

Evaluation of antifungal and antimycotoxigenic activity of selected natural antioxidants against Fusarium culmorum: in vitro and in planta assays

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Fusarium culmorum causes Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereals, leading to significant yield losses and contamination with type B trichothecene mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON) and its acetylated derivatives 3‐ADON and 15‐ADON.

Community dynamics of lignicolous lichens on standing deadwood in a 275‐year chronosequence

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Dead trees provide discrete habitat patches in which patch quality changes gradually due to wood decomposition. Although in most cases these patches persist for not more than a few decades, in some ecosystems deadwood decomposition and the consequent change in habitat patch quality can be a centuries‐long process, potentially leading to dynamics of ...

Assessing current curation, identification and digitisation practices in herbaria: Results from a global survey

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The value of herbarium specimens depends largely on the accuracy and accessibility of the data captured, which is dependent on curation practices. Previous studies have shown high levels of misidentification in collections, which become more problematic with increased access.

In vitro Antibacterial Activity of Himalayan Lichenized Fungi

open access: yes, 2017
The increase in the new strains of multi drug-resistant pathogens, the standard drugs have become less effective, thereby increasing the demand for the search of novel natural bioactive compounds from lichenized fungi.
