Grishkan I. & Temina M. (2023): Composition and diversity of endolichenic microfungal communities from saxicolous lichens at Nahal Boker, the central Negev Desert, Israel - Fungal Ecology, 61: 101196

We studied the endolichenic fungal communities from saxicolous lichens occupying the cobbles at Nahal Boker, the central Negev Desert, Israel. Overall, 101 species belonging to 64 genera were isolated from 12 lichen species collected in three seasons from the south-facing slope (SFS) and north-facing slope (NFS) of the wadi. The endolichenic communities possessed a set of traits, which helped them to cope with harsh internal and external conditions. It included a prevalence of melanin-containing … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Raggio J., Pescador D., Gozalo B., Ochoa V., Valencia E., Sancho L. & Maestre F. (2023): Continuous monitoring of chlorophyll a fluorescence and microclimatic conditions reveals warming-induced physiological damage in biocrust-forming lichens - Plant and Soil, 482: 261–276

Purpose Biocrust communities, which are impor- tant regulators of multiple ecosystem functions in drylands, are highly sensitive to climate change. There is growing evidence of the negative impacts of warming on the performance of biocrust constituents like lichens in the field. Here, we aim to understand the physiological basis behind this pattern. Methods Using a unique manipulative climate change experiment, we monitored every 30 minutes and for 9 months the chlorophyll a fluorescence and microclimatic … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Thakur M., Kapoor B., Kapoor D. & Chander H. (2023): Physiological Alterations and Heavy Metal Accumulation in the Lichen Pyxine cocoes (Sw.) Nyl. of Mandi District, Himachal Pradesh - Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, 42: 415–422

Pyxine cocoes (Sw.) Nyl., foliose lichen is widespread in the region and grows luxuriantly on the various substrata. For the elemental concentration and biochemical parameters, P. cocoes were collected from the Mandi district and were ana- lysed to assess their tolerance to heavy metals. Six parameters were estimated, including total chlorophyll concentration, carotenoid, protein, flavonoid, phenolic content, and heavy metals (Arsenic, Lead, Cadmium, Nickel, Copper), that are commonly used to determine … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Ghiloufi W., Yun J., Kim J., Lee J. & Kang H. (2023): The influences of lichens on soil physico-chemical properties, enzymes and microbes are species specific: Insights from South Mediterranean arid ecosystem - Applied Soil Ecology, 181: 104656

Despite recent advances in the ecology of lichens from a community perspective, much remains unknown at the species level particularly in arid regions. In this context, the current study investigated the differential effects of five lichen species dominating South Mediterranean arid ecosystem (Diploschistes diacapsis (Ach.) Lumbsch, Squamarina cartilaginea (With.) P. James, Fulgensia bracteata (Hoffm.) Ra ̈senen, Psora decipiens (Hedw.) Hoffm and Endocarpon pusillum Hedw.) on soil properties as … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Ayoubi S. & Bahmani S. (2023): Variation of heavy metals, magnetic susceptibility, and some chemical properties in the Lichen-rock interface on various parent rocks in west of Iran - Physics and Chemistry of the Earth, Parts A/B/C, 129: 103303

This investigation was directed to explore the impacts of Lecanora Ach. (1809) on magnetic susceptibility, some chemical properties, and heavy metals concentration in the interfaces with interior rocks including andesite, diorite, tuff, and hornblende-gabbro in the west of Iran. In each of the selected rocks, 15 samples of lichen-rock interfaces were excoriated and analyzed for heavy metals, some chemical analyses, and magnetic susceptibility (χ). The results showed that most of metals were reduced … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

De Carolis R., Muggia L. & Bacaro G. (2023): Lichen and lichenicolous fungal communities tested as suitable systems for the application of cross-taxon analysis - Diversity, 15: 285 [12 p.]

Lichens are outstanding examples of fungal symbioses that form long-lived structures, the lichen thalli, in which a multiplicity of other microorganisms are hosted. Among these, microfungi seem to establish diverse trophic relationships with their lichen hosts. The most specialised of these fungi are the parasitic lichenicolous fungi, of which the diversity has hardly been explained as a proxy for the diversity of lichen species. Here, we used an exemplar dataset of a well-studied alpine lichen community … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Beimforde C., Schmidt A.R., Tuovila H., Kaulfuss U., Germer J., Lee W.G. & Rikkinen J. (2023): Chaenothecopsis (Mycocaliciales, Ascomycota) from exudates of endemic New Zealand Podocarpaceae - MycoKeys, 95: 101–129

The order Mycocaliciales (Ascomycota) comprises fungal species with diverse, often highly specialized substrate ecologies. Particularly within the genus Chaenothecopsis, many species exclusively occur on fresh and solidified resins or other exudates of vascular plants. In New Zealand, the only previously known species growing on plant exudate is Chaenothecopsis schefflerae, found on several endemic angiosperms in the family Araliaceae. Here we describe three new species; Chaenothecopsis matai … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Park J.S., Han S.-K. & Oh S.-O. (2023): Lecanora neobarkmaniana (Lecanorales, Lecanoraceae), a new lichen species from South Korea - Mycobiology, 51(1): 16–25

Lecanora is one of the largest genera of lichens worldwide. These lichens can be easily seen, and are commonly found on trees and rocks. Most Korean Lecanora species belong to the Lecanora subfusca group, which has well-defined superficial thallus, red–brown apothecia, and soredia. The new species of L. neobarkmaniana grows on rocks, farinose soredia coalescing, usually covering the whole thallus, and containing atranorin and zeorin. We used internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and mitochondrial … URL EndNote PDF Read more...

Lendemer J.C. & Hollinger J.P. (2023): Schadonia saulskellyana (Pilocarpaceae; Lichenized Ascomycetes) an unusual new species endemic to the southern Appalachian Mountains of eastern North America - Bryologist, 126(1): 111–118

Schadonia saulskellyana is described as new to science based on material from the southern Appalachian Mountains in the eastern United States. The species appears to be endemic to the region and mostly restricted to the bark of conifers. It is particularly abundant and frequent in the imperiled highelevation spruce-fir forests of the region. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by its corticolous habit, minutely areolate thallus with areoles that erupt into soralia which dissolve … URL EndNote Read more...

Rola K., Majewska E. & Chowaniec K. (2023): Interaction effect of fungicide and chitosan on non-target lichenized fungi - Chemosphere, 316: 137772

Excessive use of plant growth stimulants and pesticides is currently a considerable problem, especially in agriculture, horticulture, and arboriculture. Understanding the impacts of these compounds and their combinations on non-target organisms is crucial to minimize unintended consequences, while maintaining their use in plant protection. The aim of this study was to test how long-term spraying with different solutions of natural biostimulator chitosan, synthetic fungicide Switch 62.5 WG, and their … URL EndNote PDF Read more...
