Broad Ecological Niche in Seashore Lichens Emerges From a Stable, Selective Association With Generalist Algal Symbionts. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn mutualistic symbioses, partner flexibility often broadens the host ecological niche. We found a stable association between littoral lichens and their algal symbionts along a natural salinity gradient, suggesting that the broad ecological niche can be facilitated by association with a single generalist symbiont.

Deciphering the biosynthetic pathways of lichen acids. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Depsides and depsidones are polyketide‐derived lichen acids widely distributed in lichen thalli, yet the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) responsible for their production remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we investigated the diversity and evolutionary relationships of polyketide BGCs in lichens.

TAXON, Volume 71, Issue 5, Page 936-962, October 2022., 2022 Abstract The genus Arthrorhaphis is a group of ascomycetes comprising lichenised and non‐lichenised taxa from temperate to arctic‐alpine regions in both hemispheres. Nine species and two infraspecific taxa are currently recognised. Their delimitation, inter‐relationships, and phylogenetic placement remain poorly understood.
