Journal ArticleDOI
rDNA ITS and β -tubulin gene sequence analyses reveal two monophyletic groups within the cosmopolitan lichen Parmelia saxatilis
Ana Crespo,M. Carmen Molina,M. Carmen Molina,Oscar Blanco,B. Schroeter,Leopoldo G. Sancho,David L. Hawksworth +6 more
TL;DR: There can be substantial large-scale genotypic variability within widespread lichen phenospecies, something which has implications for comparative ecological, physiological, and air pollution sensitivity studies as well as for lichen conservation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A first checklist of parmelioid and similar lichens in Europe and some adjacent territories, adopting revised generic circumscriptions and with indications of species distributions
TL;DR: A checklist with the current species placements in the parmelioid lichens of Europe is presented, and one new combination is made: Xanthoparmelia pulvinaris (syn. Parmelia Pulvinaris, X. pseudohungarica).
Journal ArticleDOI
Accelerated evolutionary rates in tropical and oceanic parmelioid lichens (Ascomycota)
TL;DR: Overall support for a shift in environmental conditions at cladogenesis is very strong, suggesting that speciation in some lichen clades has proceeded by dispersal into a novel environment, followed by radiation within that environment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular phylogenetic studies on the Parmotrema reticulatum (syn. Rimelia reticulata ) complex, including the confirmation of P. pseudoreticulatum as a distinct species
TL;DR: Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on nuclear ITS rDNA and mitochondrial SSU rDNA sequences from 32 specimens representing Parmotrema pseudoreticulatum, P. reticULatum and P. clavuliferum formed a monophyletic clade, supporting the synonymy already proposed on the basis of morphological features.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Group I Intron Presence in Nuclear SSU rDNA of the Lichen Family Parmeliaceae
Gabriel Gutiérrez,Gabriel Gutiérrez,Oscar Blanco,Pradeep K. Divakar,H. Thorsten Lumbsch,Ana Crespo +5 more
TL;DR: The study of the distribution of group I introns within a large monophyletic ensemble of fungi has revealed an unexpected correlation between intron types and ecological and geographical parameters.
