We employed RNA-Seq to profile gene expression in both mycobiont (L. pulmonaria) and photobiont (Symbiochloris reticulata) partners during desiccation (12h, 27h) and subsequent rehydration (1h). Comparative analysis of untreated (non-melanized) and UV-B pretreated (melanized) samples aims to identify the role of UV-B in the tolerance to desiccation.2026/09/09GSE306843GSM9210559GSM9210561GSM9210572GSM9210560GSM9210571GSM9210570GSM9210558GSM9210569GSM9210579GSM9210557GSM9210568GSM9210556GSM9210578GSM9210567GSM9210566GSM9210577GSM9210576GSM9210565GSM9210564GSM9210575GSM9210574GSM9210563GSM9210573GSM921056233282306843Lobaria pulmonaria[42731197]
