Lichens are symbiotic organisms in which fungi and algae and/or cyanobacteria form an intimate biological union. This diverse group is found in almost all terrestrial habitats from the tropics to polar regions. In this second edition, four completely new chapters cover recent developments in the study of these fascinating organisms, including lichen genetics and sexual reproduction, stress physiology and symbiosis, and the carbon economy and environmental role of lichens. The whole text has been fully updated, with chapters covering anatomical, morphological and developmental aspects; the contribution of the unique secondary metabolites produced by lichens to medicine and the pharmaceutical industry; patterns of lichen photosynthesis and respiration in relation to different environmental conditions; the role of lichens in nitrogen fixation and mineral cycling; and the use of lichens as indicators of air pollution. This is a valuable reference for both students and researchers interested in lichenology.

Lichens are prominent examples of symbiotic organisms, combining fungi and algae and/or cyanobacteria in an intimate biological union. This volume provides an up-to-date account of these fascinating organisms, beginning with anatomical, morphological and physiological aspects. As important components of many terrestrial ecosystems, their ecophysiology is emphasized and their role in carbon and nitrogen fixation, as well as in mineral cycling, is considered. An overview of lichen biogeography and systematics is also provided in the light of modern perspectives in evolution. The chemistry of the unique secondary metabolites produced by lichens is summarized and the contribution of these compounds to the pharmaceutical industry and medicine is reviewed. The use of lichens as indicators of air pollution is the final aspect of these versatile organisms which is featured in this comprehensive and authoritative work.
