| Interactions among fungi and bacteria |
| Lichens with cyanobacterial symbionts |
|
Many fungi, especially in the Ascomycota, are obligatory associated with symbionts, either green algae or cyanobacteria. Such symbioses take a rich variety of forms, characteristic of the fungal species. Below you find a sample of the diversity of growth forms of the lichens with cyanobacterial symbionts. |
