Fungi play pivotal roles in terrestrial ecosystems as decomposers, pathogens and endophytes, yet their significance in marine environments is often understudied. Seagrasses, as globally distributed ma...

Thallus growth stage affects community-wide capacity for carbon metabolism in the alpine heath lichen Ochrolechia frigida

Abstract. Large phylogenetic trees are often unbalanced near the root, with a species-depauperate lineage sister to a far more species-rich clade. The spec

Using LOPIT-DC-based spatial proteomics, Cadena et al. map the sub-organellar protein landscape of Paulinella chromatophora, a cercozoan with evolutionary-early-stage photosynthetic organelles. They f...

Lichens are stable multipartite symbioses in which a fungal mycobiont associates with one or more photosynthetic partners while hosting complex microbiomes. Secreted antimicrobial proteins (AMPs) have...

Lichens are symbiotic associations between filamentous fungi and photosynthetic micro-organisms, such as green algae and/or cyanobacteria, that result in a single anatomically complex structure that…

The iconic networks of filamentous fungi are connected through hyphal fusions. While fusion is beneficial among hyphae from the same fungal individual…
