Inhibition of NO Biosynthetic Activities during Rehydration of <i>Ramalina farinacea</i> Lichen Thalli Provokes Increases in Lipid Peroxidation

Lichens are poikilohydrous symbiotic associations between a fungus, photosynthetic partners, and bacteria. They are tolerant to repeated desiccation/rehydration cycles and adapted to anhydrobiosis. Nitric oxide (NO) is a keystone for stress tolerance of lichens; during lichen rehydration, NO limits...
