Shomer-Ilan, A/ Nissenbaum, A/ Galun, M/ Waisel, Y 1979: Effect of water regime on carbon isotope composition of lichens. - Physiologia Plantarum63: 201-205. [RLL List # 103-84 / Rec.# 17264] Keywords: WATER RELATIONS/ RAMALINA/ TELOSCHISTES/ CARBON ISOTOPE/ ISRAEL
Abstract: 3 tables. 3 figures. [Two-year study conducted on Ramalina duriaei and Teloschistes villosus collected from natural habitats in Israel showed that 13C/14C ratios vary seasonally. These variations in carbon isotopes were associated with quantitative metabolic changes. Carbon isotope values are reported from 13 other lichens as well.]
