Abiotic effects on the cover and richness of corticolous lichens on Araucaria angustifolia trunks
Lichens play a key role in natural ecosystems, as they can function as primary producers, recycle minerals and fix nitrogen. Despite their environmental importance, little is known about lichen ecology in Brazil, and especially about how abiotic factors ...

Lichenization is assumed to be a very ancient mode of fungal nutrition, but fossil records are rare. Here we describe two fragments of exceptionally preserved, probably charred, lichen thalli with internal stratification.

Mapping interactions between winter recreationists and an endangered ungulate
Southern mountain caribou are a federally designated species at risk, with declines occurring throughout their range. This species overlaps spatially and temporally in their late‐winter habitats with heli‐skiing, an activity that relies on helicopters to transport skiers to remote mountainous locales.

ABSTRACT S100 calcium‐binding protein A7 (S100A7) has been implicated in psoriasis and other inflammatory diseases. However, the function of S100A7 in oral lichen planus (OLP), a chronic inflammatory disease, remains unclear. OLP was induced in mice by transplanting human OLP lesions into the backs of thymus‐free mice, and an in vitro cell model was ...

The Conjugates of Phenolic Acids in Lichens of the Order Lecanorales
Lichens are symbiotic associations of a fungus (usually an ascomycete) and a photobiont, which may be an alga and/or a cyanobacterium. Lichens dominate on about 6–8% of land surface, mainly in the habitats with severe climatic conditions.

The Atacama Desert is one of the driest and probably oldest deserts on Earth where only a few extremophile organisms are able to survive. This study investigated two terricolous and two epiphytic lichens from the fog oasis “Las Lomitas” within the ...

The lichen flora of the Chagos Archipelago : including a comparison with other island and coastal tropical floras [PDF]
The 1996 Chagos Expedition provided the first opportunity to study the archipelago’s lichen flora. Seventeen of the 55 islands were ecologically investigated, some in more detail than others, and lists and representative collections of lichens have been ...
