Description

Lichen microalgae play a very active role in the ability of lichens to survive in extreme environmental conditions. The aim of this line of work is to determine the metabolites involved in the adaptation of lichen microalgae to extreme conditions such as desiccation or cold in order to develop possible biotechnological applications for crops tolerance.
