- W4289883909 abstract "Lichens are successful colonizers in extreme terrestrial habitats worldwide, including polluted environments. Their ability to accumulate pollutants has led to their use in monitoring metals, metalloids, and organic pollutant fall-outs from different sources. Lichen species accumulate enormous types and vast amounts of pollutants in their thalli, but still, they are not considered among the most suitable bioremediation agents. Ideal phytoremediators have a short life span, large biomass, and have the capability of hyperaccumulating the toxicants without any harm to themselves. Though lichens are capable of hyperaccumulating various toxicants and remain unharmed, they fail to produce considerable biomass due to their slow growth. Therefore, lichens are not regarded as great bioremediation agents despite qualifying as remarkable indicators and accumulators. However, several recent studies unravel that by producing diverse secondary metabolites, enzymes, and proteins that have crucial roles in the processes such as biosorption and bioaccumulation, lichens may have a significant role in bioremediation, particularly in an ecosystem with their luxuriant growth. In addition, the endolichenic and lichenicolous fungi have been studied for their extraordinary role(s) in bioremediating toxic chemicals, heavy metals, and a variety of other pollutants that harm the health of living beings. In the past few years, these fungi have been explored for their bioremediation potential against different pollutants at the laboratory level. The findings of these studies still need to be translated from the laboratory to the land. Therefore, the recent results are crucial for enhancing the use of lichens as biological monitors of pollutants and potentially in the remediation processes. The current chapter provides a quick overview of the research carried out on lichens as bioremediating and biomonitoring agents." @default.
