Environmental conditions and chemical response of a transplanted lichen to an urban area
The fruticose lichen Ramalina ecklonii (Spreng.) Mey. and Flot was transplanted to 28 biomonitoring sites in Cordoba, Argentina. Pigments, hydroperoxy conjugated dienes, malondialdehyde, soluble protein and sulphur were quantified in the lichen samples. The biomonitoring sites were determined accord...
