Volatile constituents of selected Parmeliaceae lichens [PDF]
The acetone soluble fraction of the methanol extracts of Parmeliaceae lichens: Hypogymnia physodes, Evernia prunastri and Parmelia sulcata, growing on the same host tree (Prunus domestica) and at the same locality was analyzed for the first time by GC ...

The genus Parmotrema ( Parmeliaceae , Lecanoromycetes ) in the Galapagos Islands
As part of an ongoing comprehensive inventory of all Galapagos lichens, the genus Parmotrema has been revised. In Galapagos this genus is represented by thirty-five species, seven described as new to science: Parmotrema cactacearum , P ...

Different Patterns of Frequency, Lichen Specificity and Thallus Location Between the Yeast and Filamentous Phases of Two Lichen-Inhabiting Basidiomycetes. [PDF]
The yeast phases of two lichen‐inhabiting basidiomycetes (1) are less specific towards the lichen they inhabit than the filamentous phase, (2) coexist with yeasts of different taxonomic classes and (3) occur in the cortex—as previously reported—but also in the medulla and interestingly in the soredia, the asexual symbiotic propagules of the lichen ...

Type studies on Parmotrema ( Parmeliaceae , Ascomycota ) with salazinic acid
The species of Parmotrema with salazinic acid were revised, based on the types of the accepted names, as well as their synonyms. Descriptions for 66 species are given and the synonymy, chemistry, distribution and taxonomic affinities of each species ...

Biosynthetic gene cluster synteny: Orthologous polyketide synthases in Hypogymnia physodes, Hypogymnia tubulosa, and Parmelia sulcata. [PDF]
The new Parmelia sulcata genome from the metagenomic sample was evaluated with Hypogymnia physodes and Hypogymnia tubulosa to identify orthologous polyketide synthase (PKS)‐related biosynthetic gene clusters (BGC). The phylogenetic tree highlights the relation of investigated sequences.

Gut Mycobiota of Three Rhinopithecus Species Provide New Insights into the Association Between Diet and Environment. [PDF]
This study revealed the basic structures of gut mycobiota of three wild Rhinopithecus species. The gut mycobiota of Rhinopithecus showed close connection with their feeding habits, and there were associations between gut mycobiota and the host's living environments.

The First Whole Genome Sequencing of Historical Lichen Specimens Enables Genome-Wide Analysis of Fungal and Algal Symbionts. [PDF]
We established an efficient method for sequencing the whole genome of historical lichen specimens. By using this method, we successfully retrieved genomic data to perform phylogenetic analysis of both mycobiont and photobiont. ABSTRACT With the advent of high‐throughput sequencing techniques, natural history museums and herbaria have become new ...

Chromosome-level genome assembly of the photobiont microalga Trebouxia sp. 'A48' from the lichen Xanthoria parietina. [PDF]
Summary Lichens are symbiotic assemblies consisting of multiple organisms, chiefly a fungus and a photosynthetic microorganism, or photobiont. Among diverse photobionts, the most prevalent is the chlorophyte alga Trebouxia. We produced a chromosome‐level assembly of Trebouxia sp. ‘A48’, a photobiont of Xanthoria parietina. The genome was assembled into

Two‐step isolation of the two major paraconic acids of Cetraria islandica
The lichen Cetraria islandica is traditionally used as a demulcent for the symptomatic treatment of irritations of the mouth and throat and associated dry cough, as well as for the treatment of temporary loss of appetite. In addition to depsides and depsidones, thalli contain paraconic acids, a group of secondary metabolites commonly found in lichens ...
