Cyanolichens can have both cyanobacteria and green algae in a common layer as major contributors to photosynthesis
(Oxford University Press, 2012)BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Cyanolichens are usually stated to be bipartite (mycobiont plus cyanobacterial photobiont). Analyses revealed green algal carbohydrates in supposedly cyanobacterial lichens (in the genera Pseudocyphellaria, ... -
Dewfall as a water source frequently activates the endolithic cyanobacterial communities in the granites of Taylor Valley, Antarctica
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2008)Endolithic photosynthetic microorganisms like cyanobacteria and algae are well known from savannas and deserts of the world, the high Arctic, and also Antarctic habitats like the Dry Valleys in the Ross Dependency. These ... -
Diel and seasonal courses of ambient carbon dioxide concentration and their effect on productivity of the epilithic lichen Lecanora muralis in a temperate, suburban habitat
(Cambridge University Press, 2008)Ambient CO₂ concentration (together with CO₂ exchange and microclimate) was recorded every 30 min for 15 months for Lecanora muralis growing in the Botanical Garden Würzburg (Germany, northern Bavaria), a habitat on the ... -
Diversity of Lecidea (Lecideaceae, Ascomycota) species revealed by molecular data and morphological characters
(Cambridge University Press, 2010)The diversity of lichens, especially crustose species, in continental Antarctica is still poorly known. To overcome difficulties with the morphology based species delimitations in these groups, we employed molecular data ... -
Ecology of endolithic lichens colonizing granite in continental Antarctica
(Cambridge University Press, 2005)In this study, the symbiont cells of several endolithic lichens colonizing granite in continental Antarctica and the relationships they have with the abiotic environment were analyzed in situ, in order to characterize the ...
