Sequence data from isolated lichen-associated melanized fungi enhance delimitation of two new lineages within Chaetothyriomycetidae
Lichen thalli provide a long-lived and stable habitat for colonization by a wide range of microorganisms. Increased interest in these...
-
Metagenomic data reveal diverse fungal and algal communities associated with the lichen symbiosis
Lichens have traditionally been considered the symbiotic phenotype from the interactions of a single fungal partner and one or few photosynthetic...

Phototrophic Mats of the Desert: The Bacteria of the Biological Soil Crust Community
Biological soil crusts (biocrusts) are surface soil communities that can be made up of cyanobacteria, lichens, heterotrophic bacteria, archaea,... -
Tackling fungal diversity in lichen symbioses: molecular and morphological data recognize new lineages in Chaetothyriales (Eurotiomycetes, Ascomycota)
Lichens have been reappraised as self-sustaining and long-living ecosystems in which a multiplicity of microorganisms are housed, in addition to the...
