Revisiting photobiont diversity in the lichen family Verrucariaceae (Ascomycota) (2011, result): “In Verrucariaceae, genera with complex thalli seem to have a higher specificity for their photobionts than taxa with crustose thalli, which is consistent with observations in other groups of lichens (Helms, 2003; Blaha et al., 2006; Honegger, 2009).”
Microbial consortia of bacteria and fungi with focus on the lichen symbiosis (2009, unknown): “…to the diversification of lichen fungi cannot be proved, but it is possible that adaptation of lichen populations to new habitats is accompanied by shifts in bacterial communities, similar to observed photobiont switches correlating with different ecological conditions (Blaha et al., 2006).”
Phylogeny and Molecular Evolution of the Green Algae (2012, background): “The Trebouxiales is best known as the “lichen algae group” and includes the common phycobiont genera Trebouxia and Asterochloris (Friedl and Bhattacharya, 2002; Blaha et al., 2006; Skaloud and Peksa, 2010).”
