    National Red Lists are useful tools in establishing local conservation priorities. The threat status of Estonian lichens based on the IUCN system has been assessed twice, in 2008 and 2023. In the latest Red List, the proportion of species of elevated conservation concern, that is taxa belonging to the Near Threatened and threatened categories or having become regionally extinct in Estonia, was high (58%) while Least Concern (LC) species represented one-third (36%) of all taxa. Macrolichens were more threatened than microlichens. The Red List Index (RLI), illustrating the trends of species in their projected extinction risk, was calculated. The values were low (< 0.7 in 2023), thus indicating a heightened risk both for the set of all species and for macrolichens. More than half of all Estonian lichens are associated with woodlands and 54% of these species are of elevated conservation concern. Lichens preferring broad-leaved deciduous trees included more threatened than LC species, while among lichens preferring other deciduous or coniferous trees the proportion of LC species was higher than that of threatened taxa. Lichens inhabiting calcareous grasslands had the highest share (69%) of taxa of elevated conservation concern. Comparisons of national red-listed data with four selected countries (Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland and Sweden) revealed that the biggest overlaps of Estonian taxa of elevated conservation concern were with the Czech Republic and Finland.

  • Desiccation-rehydration measurements in bryophytes: current status and future insights
    José Ángel Morales-Sánchez, Kristiina Mark, João Paulo S Souza, Ülo Niinemets
    Journal of Experimental Botany, 2022
    Desiccation–rehydration experiments have been employed over the years to evaluate desiccation tolerance of bryophytes (Bryophyta, Marchantiophyta, and Anthocerotophyta). Researchers have applied a spectrum of protocols to induce desiccation and subsequent rehydration, and a wide variety of techniques have been used to study desiccation-dependent changes in bryophyte molecular, cellular, physiological, and structural traits, resulting in a multifaceted assortment of information that is challenging to synthesize. We analysed 337 desiccation–rehydration studies, providing information for 351 species, to identify the most frequent methods used, analyse the advances in desiccation studies over the years, and characterize the taxonomic representation of the species assessed. We observed certain similarities across methodologies, but the degree of convergence among the experimental protocols was surprisingly low. Out of 52 bryophyte orders, 40% have not been studied, and data are lacking for multiple remote or difficult to access locations. We conclude that for quantitative interspecific comparisons of desiccation tolerance, rigorous standardization of experimental protocols and measurement techniques, and simultaneous use of an array of experimental techniques are required for a mechanistic insight into the different traits modified in response to desiccation. New studies should also aim to fill gaps in taxonomic, ecological, and spatial coverage of bryophytes.
  • Analyzing the causes of method-to-method variability among Rubisco kinetic traits: From the first to the current measurements
    Concepción Iñiguez, Ülo Niinemets, Kristiina Mark, Jeroni Galmés
    Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021
    Due to the importance of Rubisco in the biosphere, its kinetic parameters have been measured by different methodologies in a large number of studies over the last 60 years. These parameters are essential to characterize the natural diversity in the catalytic properties of the enzyme and they are also required for photosynthesis and cross-scale crop modeling. The present compilation of Rubisco kinetic parameters in model species revealed a wide intraspecific laboratory-to-laboratory variability, which was partially solved by making corrections to account for differences in the assay buffer composition and in the acidity constant of dissolved CO2, as well as for differences in the CO2 and O2 solubilities. Part of the intraspecific variability was also related to the different analytical methodologies used. For instance, significant differences were found between the two main methods for the determination of the specificity factor (Sc/o), and also between Rubisco quantification methods, Rubisco purification versus crude extracts, and single-point versus CO2 curve measurements for the carboxylation turnover rate (kcatc) determination. Causes of the intraspecific laboratory-to-laboratory variability for Rubisco catalytic traits are discussed. This study provides a normalized kinetic dataset for model species to be used by the scientific community. Corrections and recommendations are also provided to reduce measurement variability, allowing the comparison of kinetic data obtained in different laboratories using different assay conditions.
  • Response to Clerc & Naciri (2021) Usnea dasopoga (Ach.) Nyl. And U. barbata (L.) F. H. Wigg. (Ascomycetes, Parmeliaceae) are two different species: A plea for reliable identifications in molecular studies
    Tiina Randlane, Kristiina Mark
    Lichenologist, 2021
    During the last thirty years phylogenetic analyses based on molecular characters have developed from simple single-locus studies into complicated surveys containing multi-locus phylogenies, species trees and possibilities to evaluate the evolutionary history of characters. This has been an exciting era for systematists, including fungal taxonomists. The majority of lichenized taxa have originally been described using morphological characters s. lat. (i.e. traits related to morphology, anatomy and chemistry), and thus the congruence between traditional species description and species delimitation based on their molecular evolutionary history remains a challenge. The use of morphological characters has not been abandoned, as predicted or advocated by some researchers (Lumbsch & Leavitt 2011; Hibbett et al. 2016). However, we now know that the morphology-based approach to species recognition has also been demonstrated in several cases to substantially misrepresent diversity, as it either underestimates the occurrence of cryptic species (Altermann et al. 2014; Boluda et al. 2016) or, on the contrary, overestimates the true diversity due to high levels of intra-specific morphological and chemical variation (Leavitt et al. 2011; Velmala et al. 2014). Therefore, morphological characters continue to be useful for the delimitation of species, but only if their discriminative ability has been verified using phylogenetic analyses. Phenotypic species recognition in the genus Usnea is particularly complicated; the species are delimited by distinctive combinations of diagnostic morphological traits (Clerc 1998, 2011) which may, however, in certain cases be poorly developed or even absent (Clerc 2011). This is aggravated by the fact that there are a great number of Usnea species and high intra-specific variation, leading to a situation where most lichenologists are not able to identify Usnea species or do not undertake the task at all. This drives researchers to find other solutions. An alternative and modern way for the identification of species is DNA barcoding (Schindel & Miller 2005). A test of the success of DNA barcoding with ITS as the barcoding marker in a case study of 112 Usnea specimens from the British Isles (Kelly et al. 2011) was encouraging as the method assigned a high percentage of samples to correct species. Recent thorough analysis (Lücking et al. 2020) found usage of ITS to be a good first approximation to assess species delimitation and recognition in Usnea; however, species boundaries can be reliably established using several markers and different phylogenetic tools. Our main interest in the paper by Mark et al. (2016) focused on phylogenetic issues as we attempted to reconstruct evolutionary relationships in sect. Usnea using DNA data from six markers of 144 specimens, and to determine evolutionarily independent lineages using multiple coalescent-based species delimitation approaches. To perform these tasks, we also followed a traditional approach using morphological characters to identify the samples. Clerc & Naciri (2021) revise the traditional identification of 35 samples used in our analyses (table 1 in Clerc & Naciri (2021)) and present the details of their morphological and chemical characters. Of these, 11 samples appeared to be misidentified in Mark et al. (2016). The main disparity arose from our identification of nine U. dasopoga specimens as U. barbata. Indeed, the distinction between the two species caused difficulties for us, partly because some of the samples used appeared to be atypical or young. It is encouraging to learn that a new, previously unused character, the ratio of medulla/cortex (M/C), has proved to be the most useful discriminant in separating U. barbata and U. dasopoga (fig. 2 in Clerc & Naciri (2021)). Accepting the new morphological identifications, the interpretation of two clades (viz. barbata-chaetophora-dasypoga-diplotypus clade and barbata-intermedia-lapponica-substerilis clade) on our phylogenetic tree (fig. 1b in Mark et al. (2016)) must be reconsidered. The first of the two clades, now the dasopoga clade in Clerc & Naciri (2021), contains only U. dasopoga specimens. However, the clade has low support on the Bayesian and maximum likelihood consensus tree, on account of which the U. dasopoga monophyly is not statistically supported and its sister relationships are unresolved in our analyses. The composition of species in the second, strongly supported clade remains variable, containing samples of U. barbata, U. intermedia, U. perplexans (= U. lapponica) and U. substerilis. The subclades within this clade do not have strong support and morphological species are intermixed between them. We want to point out that the synonymization of U. substerilis under U. perplexans (= U. lapponica) proposed by us was not based merely on the well-supported sister relationship of two samples (SBS15 and LAP5), and thus the reidentification of the latter does not refute the synonymization. This synonymy was also reasonably supported by Lücking et al. (2020). It can be inferred from our phylogenetic tree with new expert identifications based on Author for correspondence: Tiina Randlane.

  • Contrasting co-occurrence patterns of photobiont and cystobasidiomycete yeast associated with common epiphytic lichen species

    New Phytologist, 2020
    Summary The popular dual definition of lichen symbiosis is under question with recent findings of additional microbial partners living within the lichen body. Here we compare the distribution and co‐occurrence patterns of lichen photobiont and recently described secondary fungus (Cyphobasidiales yeast) to evaluate their dependency on lichen host fungus (mycobiont). We sequenced the nuclear internal transcribed spacer (ITS) strands for mycobiont, photobiont, and yeast from six widespread northern hemisphere epiphytic lichen species collected from 25 sites in Switzerland and Estonia. Interaction network analyses and multivariate analyses were conducted on operational taxonomic units based on ITS sequence data. Our study demonstrates the frequent presence of cystobasidiomycete yeasts in studied lichens and shows that they are much less mycobiont‐specific than the photobionts. Individuals of different lichen species growing on the same tree trunk consistently hosted the same or closely related mycobiont‐specific Trebouxia lineage over geographic distances while the cystobasidiomycete yeasts were unevenly distributed over the study area – contrasting communities were found between Estonia and Switzerland. These results contradict previous findings of high mycobiont species specificity of Cyphobasidiales yeast at large geographic scales. Our results suggest that the yeast might not be as intimately associated with the symbiosis as is the photobiont.
