Howe Wu's journal entry (Dirinaria Lichens)
Lichens are one of the best examples of symbiosis where algal or cyanobacterial partners, the photobionts and fungal partners, the mycobionts demonstrate harmony for coexistence (Molnár and Farkas, 2010; Nayaka, 2014). The species Dirinaria is found across tropical regions and are moderately tolerant to air pollution. Lichens are most known for their ability to grow almost anywhere, from extreme conditions such as the Arctic and Antarctic, to tropical rainforests and even deserts. They are also potential candidates as biomarkers for air quality and other environmental changes.
