Physiological response of the bioindicator Ramalina farinacea in relation to atmospheric deposition in an urban environment

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020
Urban air pollution is one of the most important environmental problems. Lichens are good bioindicators in air pollution studies because of their dependence on the atmospheric deposition for nutrition. The present study focused on the effects of urbanization on the composition of atmospheric deposition inputs and physiological parameters of ...

Nitric oxide affects cadmium-induced changes in the lichen Ramalina farinacea

open access: yesNitric Oxide, 2019
Metabolic responses of epiphytic lichen Ramalina farinacea to cadmium (Cd) and/or nitric oxide (NO) scavenger (cPTIO) were studied. Accumulation of Cd and other metallic nutrients was not affected by cPTIO while total and absorbed amounts differed. Cd-induced NO formation was suppressed by cPTIO but ROS signal was synergistically enhanced, confirming ...

The Ramalina farinacea Complex in North America: Chemical, Ecological and Morphological Variation

Bryologist, 1978
Ramalina farinacea (L.) Ach. is most abundant along the coastal regions of North America from approximately 30-600N latitude. All of the five European chemical races are present in the New World in addition to unreported combinations of diagnostic acids. An analysis of morphological variation in chemical lines showed them to be indistinguishable. There

Phenolic Compounds with In Vitro Activity against Respiratory Syncytial Virus from the Nigerian Lichen Ramalina farinacea

Planta Medica, 2013
The extract of the Nigerian lichen Ramalina farinacea showed inhibitory activity against the respiratory syncytial virus in a preliminary assay. A follow-up chemical investigation of this lichen led to the isolation of thirteen phenolic compounds (1-13), including one new hydroquinone depside, designated 5-hydroxysekikaic acid (1), and one new ...

Effects of chromium VI stress on photosynthesis, chlorophyll integrity, cell viability, and proline accumulation in lichen Ramalina farinacea

Russian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2010
In order to contribute to understanding of the response to metal stress, Ramalina farinacea (L.) Ach. was treated with different concentrations of chromium (VI) (5, 15, and 30 mM of K2CrO4) for 1, 3, and 24 h, and alterations in the photosystem II photosynthetic quantum yield, pigment content, integrity of chlorophyll, cell viability, and proline ...

South European populations of Ramalina farinacea (L.) Ach. share different Trebouxia algae

open access: yes, 2010
[EN] Little is currently known about the population structure of lichen photobionts. Accordingly, in this study we analyzed the nature and distribution of phycobionts in different Spanish populations of Ramalina farinacea. Two different Trebouxia algae were isolated and identified on the basis of anatomical and chloroplast LSU rDNA sequence studies ...
