| Description | Foliose lichen response to osmotically-induced dehydration under high, medium, and low temperature was found species-specific. Critical water potential at which Umbilicaria hirsuta and Lasallia pustulata exhibited substantial inhibition of primary photochemical reactions of photosynsthesis were evaluated. |
