Exploring the influence of climatic variables on mycobiome composition and community diversity in lichens: insights from structural equation modeling analysis
Abstract Background Lichens are symbiotic organisms composed of a fungus and a photosynthetic partner, which are key ecological bioindicators due to their sensitivity to environmental changes. The endolichenic fungi (ELF) living inside lichen thalli, are an important but understudied component of pl...
