Beltman, IH/ de Kok, LJ/ Kuiper, JC/ van Hasselt, PR 1980: Fatty acid composition and chlorophyll content of epiphytic lichens and a possible relation to their sensitivity to air pollution. - Oikos35: 321-326. [RLL List # 109-5 / Rec.# 1758] Keywords: EPIPHYTE/ AIR POLLUTION/ FATTY ACID/ CHLOROPHYLL/ SYMBIOSIS
Abstract: 2 tables. 1 figure. [Thirteen species studied. "It is suggested that the sensitivity of lichens to air pollution is related to the degree of dependency of the mycobiont on the phycobiont as far as metabolic energy is concerned; in such a way that the stronger this dependency is, the more sensitive the lichen will be to air pollution."]
