The effect of light quality on the photosynthetic pigments as chromatic adaptation in 8 species of lichens were examined.
The chlorophylls, carotenoids in 5 species with green algae as phycobionts (Cladonia mitis, Hypogymnia physodes, H. tubulosa var. tubulosa and subtilis, Flavoparmelia caperata, Xanthoria parietina) and the chlorophyll a, carotenoids and phycobiliprotein pigments in 3 species with cyanobacteria as photobionts (Peltigera canina, P. polydactyla, P. rufescens) were determined. The total content of photosynthetic pigments was calculated according to the formule and particular pigments
were determined by means CC, TLC, HPLC and IEC chromatography. The total content of the photosynthetic pigments (chlorophylls,
carotenoids) in the thalli was highest in red light (genus Peltigera), yellow light (Xanthoria parietina), green light (Cladonia mitis) and at blue light (Flavoparmelia caperata and both species of Hypogymnia). The biggest content of the biliprotein pigments at red and blue lights was observed. The concentration of C-phycocyanin
increased at red light, whereas C-phycoerythrin at green light. 相似文献

The lichen Evernia prunastri is very frequently employed in lichen biomonitoring studies and its sensitivity to air pollution has been confirmed at the community level many times. However, studies focused on the physiological responses of this lichen to pollutants are underrepresented. The degree of total as well as intracellular Cu uptake by the lichen after 4 and 24?h prolonged exposure was compared with selected physiological markers including levels of assimilation pigments, chlorophyll a fluorescence, ergosterol, soluble proteins, hydrogen peroxide, superoxide, amino acids, reducing sugars and total soluble phenols. Although the degree of total as well as intracellular Cu uptake by the lichen after 4 and 24?h prolonged exposure were comparable, metabolic responses after 4 and 24?h were very different. Carotenoids, ergosterol and soluble proteins decreased due to Cu exposure and these processes were followed with an increase of superoxide content. Excess of Cu in thalli of E. prunastri after 24?h was toxic and altered almost all tested parameters, including depletion of reducing sugars. We did not observe stimulation of free amino acid synthesis in Cu treated lichen, in fact the content of many particular amino acids decreased. Content of total soluble phenols was unaltered by Cu excess. 相似文献

Secondary lichen products can be extracted from air-dry thalli of Xanthoria parietina, Xanthoparmelia conspersa and Parmelina tiliacea with 100% acetone without affecting either short-or long-term viability. In Xanthoria parientina damage by acetone started to occur as water content reached the critical lower limit for photosystem II (PSII) activity. Extraction of the blue-light absorbing cortical pigment parietin increased the susceptibility of both air-dry and hydrated thalli to high light. Damage by high light levels caused a permanent reduction in F
v/Fm, quantum yield for photosynthetic O2 production and photosynthetic capacity measured after a 2-day recovery period at low light levels (20 mol photons m-2 s-1). Parietin therefore protects the photosynthetic apparatus of Xanthoria parietina against damage by high light levels. Extraction of UV-absorbing pigments from Xanthoparmelia conspersa and Parmelina tiliacea did not increase photoinhibition after 24 h exposure to high light. 相似文献

In the present study we report some preliminary results concerning the evaluation of antiproliferative activity on murine
myeloma cells (P3X63-Ag8.653) of crude extracts of two common lichen species, Evernia prunastri and Xanthoria parietina.
The results were evaluated by means of the MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide] test, which
is commonly used to assess the activity of living cells through mitochondrial dehydrogenases. They indicated that extracts
of E. prunastri had no effect, while those of X. parietina significantly affected murine myeloma cell proliferation, with a reduction down to 75% for methanolic extracts. This opens
perspectives for deeper investigations extended also to other mammalian cell lines. 相似文献

The methanol extracts of four Parmeliaceae lichens (Hypogymnia physodes, Evernia prunastri, Flavoparmelia caperata and Parmelia sulcata) were screened for antioxidant properties and total phenol content. The H. physodes extract was the most effective at reducing iron(III) and scavenging 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radicals, while the P. sulcata extract was the most effective in reducing molybdenum(VI) in an acidic medium. The E. prunastri and H. physodes extracts contained more Folin-Ciocalteu reagent reactive substances than the F. caperata and P. sulcata extracts. Significant activity of the H. physodes extract in DPPH and reducing Fe(III) assays suggest that this lichen can be considered as a potential source of antioxidants. 相似文献

The phenolic composition and antioxidant capacity of four Tunisian lichen species, Cladonia rangiformis, Flavoparmelia caperata, Squamarina cartilaginea and Xanthoria parietina, were determined in order to provide a better understanding of their lichenochemical composition. Powdered material of F. caperata was the richest in total phenolic content (956.68 μg GAE g−1 DW) and S. cartilaginea in proanthocyanidin content (77.31 μg CE g−1 DW), while the acetone extract of X. parietina showed the highest flavonoid content (9.56 μg CE g−1 DW). The antioxidant capacity of all lichen extracts and crude material was evaluated by DPPH. scavenging, iron-chelating, and iron-reducing powers. Results showed that methanol extracts of S. cartilaginea had the highest DPPH. antioxidant capacity (IC50=0.9 μg mL−1) and the highest iron-reducing power was attributed to the acetone extract of this species. All extracts of all species were further screened by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and nuclear resonance spectroscopy (NMR); results showed an abundance of phenols, aromatic compounds, and fatty acids. Overall, our results showed that the investigated species are a rich source of potentially bioactive compounds with valuable properties. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to compare the physiological responses to increased nitrogen (N) supply between the nitrophytic lichen Xanthoria parietina (L.) Th. Fr. and the acidophytic lichen Evernia prunastri (L.) Ach. The two lichens were exposed to a weekly dosage of 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.6 or 2.4 g N m–2 for 2 months, administered as NH4NO3 dissolved in artificial rainwater (1 l m–2). After the treatments, in vivo chlorophyll a fluorescence was determined to assess vitality; concentrations of total N, ammonium, nitrate and dominant amino acids, including glutamate, glutamine and arginine, were quantified in order to follow changes in N status; and the polyols ribitol, arabitol and mannitol were quantified to follow changes in the lichens carbon (C) status. The uptake of N was quantified by labelling the fertiliser with 15N in the ammonium position; chlorophyll a was used as an indirect marker for algal activity, and ergosterol as an indirect marker of fungal activity. Nitrogen uptake was higher in E. prunastri than in X. parietina, although the latter species may have used the mannitol reserves to obtain C skeletons and energy for N assimilation. Chlorophyll a and ergosterol concentrations remained unaltered in X. parietina irrespective of N dosage while ergosterol decreased with increasing N uptake in E. prunastri. The latter species had accumulated a large pool of ammonium at the highest N dosage, whilst in X. parietina a significant nitrate pool was instead observed. Taken together, these short-term responses to high N supply observed in the two lichens, and the differences between them, can partly explain the higher tolerance of X. parietina towards increased atmospheric N levels. 相似文献

Photosynthetic oxygen production and PAM fluorescence measurements were used to follow photoinhibition in the red macroalga Porphyra umbilicalis. Exposure to simulated solar radiation caused inhibition of the effective photosynthetic quantum yield from which the thalli partially recovered in the shade in subsequent hours. There were no significant differences between samples exposed to unfiltered radiation and those exposed to radiation from which increasing portions of UV radiation had been removed indicating that the thalli are well adapted to current levels of solar PAR and UV radiation. This notion was supported by the finding of high concentrations of UV screening pigments which were even enhanced by exposure to increased UV radiation. However, when exposed to (only) UV radiation about 50% higher than that encountered by the organisms in their natural habitat, the photosynthetic yield decreased slowly and did not show any recovery even when the degree of inhibition did not exceed 10%. 相似文献

Xanthoria parietinathalli were collected from a ‘ clean-air ’ location and from a polluted area.Ramalina duriaeithalli were collected from the same ‘ clean-air ’ location and some thalli were transplanted to air-polluted locations, whereR. duriaeino longer occurs. The effects of air contaminants on these two lichens were compared under controlled laboratory conditions and in field experiments. Air contaminants and exposure to bisulphite ions had little or no damaging effect onX. parietina, whereas severe damage was caused toR. duriaei, as judged by chlorophyll degradation, autofluorescence of photobionts, photosynthetic activity, membrane integrity and ATP content. The different responses presented confirm the sensitivity ofR. duriaeiand resistance ofX. parietinato air pollution. 相似文献

Detached leaves of Spinacia oleracea were incubated with evernicacid, the main phenolic substance present in Evernia prunastrithalli. This lichen substance produced a decrease in the amountof total chlorophyll and chlorophyll a in treated spinach leaves.Chloroplast structure suffered a decrease in several parameters,i.e. chloroplast area, number of grana, granal width, numberof thylakoids per granum and starch content. The submicroscopicstructure of the chloroplast membranes revealed smaller particlediameters in several of the fracture faces in the evernic acidtreated samples and even a decrease in the density of particlesin the EF, fracture face. The alterations observed may be relatedto changes in photosynthetic activity, probably by modificationof both photosystem I and photosystem II activities.

Summary The response of net photosynthesis (NP) and dark respiration to periods of high insolation exposure was examined in the tropical basidiomycete lichen Cora pavonia. Photoinhibition of NP proved quite dependant on temperature. Rates of light saturated NP were severely impaired immediately after pretreatment high light exposure at temperatures of 10, 20 and 40°C, while similar exposure at 30°C resulted in only minimal photoinhibition. Apparent quantum yield proved an even more sensitive indicator of photoinhibition, reduced in all temperature treatments, although inhibition was again greatest at low and high temperatures. Concurrent exposure to reduced O2 tensions during high light exposure mitigated some of the deleterious effects of high light exposure at 10 and 20°C, suggesting an interaction of O2 with the inactivation of photosynthetic function. This represents the first reported instance of light dependant chilling stress in lichens, and may be an important limitation on the distribution of this and other tropical lichen species. This narrow range of temperatures within which thalli of C. pavonia can withstand periods of high insolation exposure coincides with that faced by hydrated thalli during rare periods of high insolation exposure within the cloud/shroud zone on La Soufrière, and points to the necessity of considering periods of atypical or unusual climatic events when interpreting patterns of net photosynthetic response, both in tropical and in north temperate lichen species. 相似文献

This study aimed to deepen the knowledge about intraspecific mechanisms regulating nitrogen tolerance in lichens to wet nitrogen
deposition. Thalli of the nitrophilous lichen Xanthoria parietina were collected from environments with different nitrogen availabilities and immersed in 80 mL of ammonium sulphate (NH4)2SO4 solutions with distinct concentrations (0, 0.025, 0.05 and 0.25 M) for 5 h per day during 3 days in a week. After each soaking
event, lichens were air dried. After each treatment, maximal PSII efficiency, localization of ammonium ions, concentrations
of K+ and Mg2+ and thalli buffer capacity were determined. Our results show that lichens are marked by their native nitrogen environment,
since there were important differences between the physiological responses of X. parietina thalli previously grown in an area with high nitrogen deposition (nitrogen emissions of ca. 13,000 t/year) and those previously
grown in an unpolluted area (nitrogen emissions of ca. 500 t/year). Greater N availability seems to enable X.
parietina to cope better with the effects of nitrogen pollution. 相似文献

Endophytic fungal communities in leaves of deciduous trees usually undergo pronounced seasonal changes. We hypothesised that such compositional shifts are predominantly caused by annuality of the leaves and therefore less pronounced in fungi colonising the perennial substrates bark and corticolous lichens. To test this hypothesis, thalli of the foliose lichen-forming fungal species Xanthoria parietina and Physconia distorta, along with the adjacent bark, were sampled during spring and autumn at two sides of a single tree in southern Germany. Analysis of clone libraries by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) revealed 588 singleton and 221 non-singleton RFLP-types of non-lichenised fungi. The communities differed significantly between host lichen species. Season and exposure had only a significant impact when the two factors were combined in the analysis. Accordingly, bark- and/or the lichen-associated fungal communities change throughout the year’s course, a finding that rejects the initial hypothesis. This survey revealed valuable information for future broad-based studies, by indicating that a relatively high diversity of non-lichenised fungi is associated with corticolous lichen thalli and the adjacent bark. Furthermore, the structure of non-lichenised fungal assemblages associated with corticolous lichen communities obviously depends at least on the following factors: ‘lichen species’, ‘exposure’, and ‘season’. 相似文献

Lichens, representing mutualistic symbioses between photobionts and mycobionts, often accumulate high concentrations of secondary
compounds synthesized by the fungal partner. Light screening is one function for cortical compounds being deposited as crystals
outside fungal hyphae. These compounds can non-destructively be extracted by 100% acetone from air-dry living thalli. Extraction
of atranorin from Physcia aipolia changed the lichen colour from pale grey to green in the hydrated state, whereas acetone-rinsed and control thalli were all
pale grey when dry. Removal of parietin from Xanthoria parietina changed the colour of desiccated thalli from orange to grey. Colour changes were quantified by reflectance measurements.
By a new chlorophyll fluorescence method, screening was assessed as the decrease in incident irradiance (PAR) necessary to
reach identical effective quantum yields of PSII (ΦPSII) in acetone-rinsed and control thalli. Thereby, we estimated a screening efficiency due to cortical atranorin crystals at
61, 38, and 40% of blue, green and red light, respectively, whereas parietin screened 81, 27 and 1% of these wavelength ranges.
Removal of atranorin caused similar levels of increased photoinhibition for P. aipolia in blue, green and red light, whereas parietin-deficient thalli of X. parietina exhibited increased photoinhibition with decreasing wavelengths. Atranorin possibly prevents water from entering the spaces
between the hyphae in the cortex. The air-filled cavities with white atranorin crystals reflect excess light, whereas the
yellow compound parietin absorbs excess light. Thereby, both atranorin and parietin play significant photoprotective roles
for symbiotic green algae, but with compound-specific screening mechanisms. 相似文献

Thalli of the foliose lichen species Parmelina tiliacea were studied to determine responses of the photosynthetic apparatus to high temperatures in the dry and wet state. The speed
with which dry thalli were activated by water following a 24 h exposure at different temperatures decreased as the temperature
was increased. But even following a 24 h exposure to 50°C the fluorescence induction kinetics OJIP reflecting the reduction
kinetics of the photosynthetic electron transport chain had completely recovered within 128 min. Exposure of dry thalli to
50°C for 24 h did not induce a K-peak in the fluorescence rise suggesting that the oxygen evolving complex had remained intact.
This contrasted strongly with wet thalli were submergence for 40 s in water of 45°C inactivated most of the photosystem II
reaction centres. In wet thalli, following the destruction of the Mn-cluster, the donation rate to photosystem II by alternative
donors (e.g. ascorbate) was lower than in higher plants. This is associated with the near absence of a secondary rise peak
(~1 s) normally observed in higher plants. Analysing the 820 nm and prompt fluorescence transients suggested that the M-peak
(occurs around 2–5 s) in heat-treated wet lichen thalli is related to cyclic electron transport around photosystem I. Normally,
heat stress in lichen thalli leads to desiccation and as consequence lichens may lack the heat-stress-tolerance-increasing
mechanisms observed in higher plants. Wet lichen thalli may, therefore, represent an attractive reference system for the evaluation
of processes related with heat stress in higher plants. 相似文献

The lichens Parmelia quercina, Parmelia sulcata, Evernia prunastri, Hypogymnia physodes, and Anaptychia ciliaris were exposed to ozone (O3) in controlled environment cuvettes designed to maintain the lichens at optimal physiological activity during exposure. Measurements of gas exchange, modulated chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence, and pigment analysis were conducted before and after exposure to 300 mm3 (O3) m–3, 4 h per d for 14 d. No changes in the efficiency of photosystem 2 (PS2) photochemistry, the reduction state of QA, or the electron flow through PS2, measured by Chl fluorescence, were detected in any of the five lichen species studied. Additionally, neither photosynthetic CO2 assimilation nor xanthophyll cycle activity or photosynthetic pigment concentration were affected by high O3 concentrations. Thus the studied lichen species have significant capacities to withstand oxidative stresses induced by high concentration of O3. 相似文献

Water Distribution in Foliose Lichen Species: Interactions between Method of Hydration, Lichen Substances and Thallus Anatomy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Three lichens (Neofuscelia pokornyi, N. pulla and Xanthoriaparietina) from a semi-arid habitat were examined using low-temperaturescanning electron microscopy to evaluate the effects of hydrationmethod, lichen substances and thallus anatomy on the water distributionof hydrated thalli. In theNeofuscelia species, extracellularwater within the thallus was observed in association with cracksin its otherwise impervious upper cortex, while X. parietinashowed abundant extracellular water between medullary hyphae.Spraying the thalli followed by maintenance for 1420h in a water-saturated atmosphere led to the disappearance ofthe external water film in X. parietina but not in the Neofusceliaspecies. Surface water was abundant in specimens of all speciesimmediately after spraying for 15 min. No extracellular waterwas observed inside the thallus 1420 h after spraying,but after rinsing with acetone its presence was detected inall three species. Hydric strategy correlated with cortex hygroscopicity:X. parietina, an aero-hygrophytic species, had a more hygroscopicupper cortex than theNeofuscelia species, which are substrate-hygrophytic.The hygroscopicity of the upper cortex was linked with the amountof extracellular water in the thalline interior. Differencesbetween X. parietina and Neofuscelia in the polarity and distributionof their lichen substances agreed with species differences inthe presence and distribution of free water both as a film overthe surface and inside the thallus. Lichen substances appearto play a role in the maintenance of air-filled intrathallinespaces in species whose anatomy, habitat, or both, favour water-loggedconditions.

Secondary metabolites of lichens can be involved in production of chelates with heavy metals. We hypothesized that parietin plays important role in protection of photobiont cells in Xanthoria parietina from an excess of cadmium ions. Two types of X. parietina lichen thalli, natural with presence of secondary metabolite parietin (p+) as well as without parietin (p−) were exposed to different doses of cadmium (up to 300 μmol g−1 dw). Based on determination of the total and intracellular Cd-accumulation, ergosterol and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) content did not show statistically significant differences in the response of both types of thalli (p+ and p−). However, a stronger toxic effect of the highest Cd-dose on photosynthetic pigment content and chlorophyll a fluorescence was observed in the parietin-depleted thalli. The protective role of parietin against Cd excess was better supported and concluded from the differences observed in the production of non-protein thiol compounds (cysteine, glutathione and phytochelatins) involved in Cd detoxification. In the p+ thalli Cys content was stable but GSH content slightly decreased in the studied Cd range, while in the p− thalli these compounds were completely absent at high Cd doses. At Cd doses higher than 37.5 μmol Cd g−1 dw, toxic to both types of X. parietina thalli, Cys and GSH contents were significantly higher in p+ than in p− thalli. Also, the photobiont partner in the p+ thalli was better protected of the metal exposition, and able to produce phytochelatins (PCs) over the whole range of metal, while in the p− thalli the production was completely inhibited at 75 μmol Cd g−1 dw and higher concentrations, together with the inhibition of cysteine (Cys) and reduced glutathione (GSH) production. The obtained results indicate that the parietin layer is a natural barrier decreasing Cd access to algal cells in X. parietina. Comparison of PCs production appeared to be the most sensitive marker for estimation of Cd availability to photobiont in the symbiotic system. 相似文献

Summary The daily photosynthetic patterns of Cetraria cucullata were followed over the 1976 summer period at Anaktuvuk Pass, Alaska. With the exception of rainy peroids, the lichen exhibited a strong diurnal pattern with peak photosynthetic activity occurring between 0300 and 0700 h. This correllated with periods of maximal lichen water retention and the presence of direct solar radiation. When the lichen was moist, a strong gradient in photosynthetic activity was observed with no activity in the lichen bases and maximal activity in the lichen tips. 相似文献

Growth and development of the foliose macrolichen Xanthoria parietina and adjacent lichen and bryophyte spp. was photographically monitored over a period of five years. This association developed on a plane quadrangle on the top surface of a sandstone block in the botanical garden of the University of Zürich. Line tracings of the thalline outlines were used for a quantitative estimation of laminal growth by means of gravimetric morphometry. Average radial growth of approximately 6 mm yr?1 was recorded, with maxima around 7 mm yr?1. The oldest, apothecia-covered central parts of the thalli lost contact with the substratum and broke off along stress cracks but the blank substratum was rapidly re-colonized by new thallus lobes which regenerated along the wound margins, to our present knowledge a peculiarity of X. parietina and few related species among the Teloschistales. Approximately 50% of the surface area of the experimental plot was covered by X. parietina at the beginning and again at the end of this five years period, with significant fluctuations in the time between. New growth in the range of 87% of the total surface area almost compensated the losses of approximately 90% per surface area in five years. New growth and losses within these five years accounted for more than 170% of the initial coverage. X. parietina gains a significant ecological advantage from its very remarkable regenerative capacity. 相似文献
