About: Nephroma

An Entity of Type: Disease114070360, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Nephroma is a genus of medium to large foliose lichens. The genus has a widespread distribution. They are sometimes called kidney lichens, named after the characteristic kidney-shaped apothecia that they produce on the lower surface of their lobe tips, which often curl upwards and thus are visible from above. Sterile specimens that do not have apothecia can look somewhat like Melanelia, Peltigera, Platismatia, or Asahinea. Most species grow either on mossy ground or rocks, or on trees.

  • Nephroma is a genus of medium to large foliose lichens. The genus has a widespread distribution. They are sometimes called kidney lichens, named after the characteristic kidney-shaped apothecia that they produce on the lower surface of their lobe tips, which often curl upwards and thus are visible from above. Sterile specimens that do not have apothecia can look somewhat like Melanelia, Peltigera, Platismatia, or Asahinea. Most species grow either on mossy ground or rocks, or on trees. All species of Nephroma contain cyanobacteria (in the genus Nostoc) as a photobiont, which allows the organism to fix nitrogen. In some species the cyanobacteria is the sole photobiont, while other species also contain a green alga photobiont (Coccomyxa) and the cyanobacteria is restricted to warty cephalodia on the upper or lower surface of the lichen.

  • Nephroma est un genre de champignons ascomycètes. La famille des Nephromataceae à laquelle il appartient est monotypique, ne comportant que ce genre unique. Il s'agit de cyanolichens, c'est-à-dire de champignons lichénisés toujours associés à des cyanobactéries, même si le symbionte primaire de certaines espèces peut parfois être une algue verte. Le thalle est foliacé, souvent de grande taille. La famille compte environ 35 espèces, largement représentées dans les régions tempérées. (fr)
  • Nephroma Ach. (pawężniczka ) – rodzaj grzybów z rodziny (Nephromataceae). Ze względu na współżycie z glonami zaliczany jest do grupy porostów. (pl)
  • Nephroma är ett släkte av lavar. Nephroma ingår i familjen Nephromataceae, ordningen Peltigerales, klassen Lecanoromycetes, divisionen sporsäcksvampar och riket svampar. Lavarna inom släktet Nephroma har stor, bladlik bål, barklager på båda sidor och oregelbundet avlånga, bruna eller rödbruna apothecier på undersidan. (sv)
