Genetic diversity of terricolous Peltigera cyanolichen communities in different conservation states of native forest from southern Chile.

Abstract excerpt

Decreasing quality of forest habitats is among the major factors leading to a loss of epiphytic lichen diversity. However, there is little information about how this factor influences the diversity of terricolous lichens, which do not grow over living trees and could be less susceptible to such disturbances. In this work we describe the genetic diversity of Peltigera terricolous cyanolichens and their cyanobiont...
