How to build a lichen: from metabolite release to symbiotic interplay. [PDF]
Summary Exposing their vegetative bodies to the light, lichens are outstanding amongst other fungal symbioses. Not requiring a pre‐established host, ‘lichenized fungi’ build an entirely new structure together with microbial photosynthetic partners that neither can form alone.

ABSTRACT Insects are a relatively sustainable food source with a high protein content, and an alternative food option for the growing global population. However, while entomophagy (eating insects) is a growing food trend on the global stage, very few studies focus on New Zealanders’ perceptions of it.

Ergot alkaloids in New Zealand pastures and their impact
ABSTRACT In identifying endophytes for use in pastures in New Zealand there have been two strategies used, either exclusion of ergopeptine and lolitrem alkaloids or, retaining some ergopeptine expression to enhance the stability of natural defences against invertebrate pests. Both have their strengths and weaknesses.
