     Extractions: PROJECTS USING LICHENS (a) Handlens - The 'Richardson' handlens A simple handlens can be constructed out of an old pair of binoculars which has damaged prisms or has become corroded. These can be purchased second hand from camera shops or may be lying around at home. Unscrew the large lenses together with their cone-like supports from the end opposite the eye pieces. In some binoculars these won't unscrew and you may have to say them off with a hacksaw, holding the eye-piece end in a vice. Tape the unscrewed or cut ends of the two lenses together with heavy masking tape or duct tape. You then have an excellent wide field handlens with from 5-10 x magnifying power that is of better quality (and cheaper) than any purchased in general stores.

     Extractions: A PART I: FOLIICOLOUS LICHENS Robert LÜCKING *Lehrstuhl für Pflanzensystematik, Universität Bayreuth, D-95447 Bayreuth, Germany [Version: October 31st, 2000] As a complement to the Checklist of foliicolous lichens and their lichenicolous fungi , this KEY TO FOLIICOLOUS LICHENS AND THEIR LICHENICOLOUS FUNGI is a semi-interactive tool allowing for the identification of genera, species and subspecific taxa of lichens commonly found on leaves (typically or regularly foliicolous lichens). This key is also provided as a counterpart to a forthcoming interactive key using the LIAS database in cooperation with Gerhard Rambold [RAMBOLD, Biblioth. Lichenol. 68: 67-72 (1997)]. In a second part, keys to genera and species of lichenicolous fungi on foliicolous lichens will also be included. The key is divided into a main key leading to subkeys allowing for the identification of genera, and keys to species and subspecific taxa for each genus. With some few exceptions, the keys are divided into modules containing no more than 20 units. Keys are strictly dichotomous and corresponding key couples are paired and consecutively numbered. In order to provide a homogeneous wording, a simplified terminology is used. Ascomata are named either perithecia or apothecia, irrespective of their ontogenetical or structural differences. Accordingly, all interascal hyphae are termed paraphyses (including paraphysoids and pseudoparaphyses). All campylidioid conidiomata are named campylidia even if they are not homologous organs. The term "bitunicate" is generally used for fissitunicate asci.

     Extractions: GLOSSARY - Lichens D.J.Galloway Back to Glossaries This general Glossary contains terms likely to be used in the volumes of the Flora of Australia dealing with the lichens (Volumes 54-58). Specialised terms that are crucial to the understanding of the account of an individual family or genus, but not of wide application, will be defined as appropriate in the relevant volumes. As far as possible the definitions provided here conform with those used for vascular plants, but there are some instances where the meanings differ and long-standing practice is accepted. It is the policy of the Flora Editorial Committee to keep the use of technical terms to a minimum so as to make it easy for the reader to use the Flora without constant reference to the Glossary. Words explained accurately, for botanical purposes, in The Macquarie Dictionary have generally not been included in the Glossary unless much more widely used in English in a different sense.

105. LICHENS—An Unlikely Source Of New Herbicides

     Extractions: of New Herbicides In their search for new and more environmentally friendly herbicides, scientists are leaving no proverbial stone unturned. Now Agricultural Research Service scientists in collaboration with the National Center for Natural Products Research, University of Mississippi-Oxford, have found a natural compound in lichens that may be a potential new herbicide. "Lichens are unusual and intriguing organisms," says Franck E. Dayan, a plant physiologist in the ARS Natural Products Utilization Research Unit at Oxford, Mississippi. "They're a hybrid of two kingdoms—the quintessential symbiosis of a fungus and an alga. "As a successful alliance between these two organisms, lichens live as a single organism. Both inhabit the same body, or thallus, with each doing what it does best and thriving as a result of the natural cooperation." "The scientific names of lichens are based on the fungal parts, which are very diverse taxonomically, with over 20,000 different species," says former ARS plant physiologist Joanne G. Romagni. She worked with Dayan at the Oxford lab and is now on the faculty of St. Thomas University in Houston, Texas.

     Extractions: Lichens in the Precambrian According to the fossil record, fungi and plants first colonized the land about 460 to 480 million years ago. Studies using molecular clocks — which use knowledge of gene mutations to determine when a species originated — had suggested an older date of 600 million years, reasonably close to what the fossil record indicates. But in work published in the Aug. 10 Science, a team led by evolutionary biologist Blair Hedges at Pennsylvania State University suggest that fungi had colonized the land by about 1 billion years ago and that vascular plants followed at about 700 million years ago. It is the latest in a series of studies showing that molecular clocks can yield dramatically different evolutionary time scales than those suggested by the fossil record alone. The finding also offers an explanation for the cause of two of the most dramatic episodes in Earth’s history: the global glaciation, or Snowball Earth, of the late Precambrian and the rapid diversification of animal groups known as the Cambrian Explosion. Hedges and his research team evaluated scores of genes for use as molecular clocks and found 119 that could time fungi mutations, 48 for green algae and 54 for land plants. As with a radiometric clock for dating rocks, the individual events measured — mutations, in this case — are random. But in large numbers, they average to a constant rate for each gene, Hedges says. The team calibrated their estimates against well-documented events in the fossil record.

     Extractions: on field recognition The diverse assemblege of symbiotic fungi and algae known as lichens reveals itself through these pages for the purpose of promoting a broader understanding and appreciation of this other major lineage of terrestrial photosynthetic organisms. Lichens inhabiting a wide spectrum of habitats in the Pacific Northwest are photodocumented and their salient field characters are briefly described. This site is intended to facilitate learning the lichen flora in the region through the use of macro- and photomicrography of features that can be visualized in the field with a hand lens. Notes on laboratory procedures and microscopic details are also included where helpful. Lichens can be learned fairly quickly with the assistance of this web-based visual guide that goes beyond the printed-medium limitations on visual information by providing multiple images, including details of diagnostic features as well as habit illustration. Visual information and descriptions on this site, when used in conjuction with printed guides to the lichen flora, will hopefully accelerate learning these beautiful and rugged creatures. This site is intended primarily for students in Bi 442/542, Bryophytes and Lichens
