^M = metagenome: Species names not followed by ^M denote genome projects from culture (all reads represent the lichenizing or free-living fungus); species names followed by ^M denote genome projects from lichens metagenomes (reads represent the lichenizing fungus, the lichenizing alga or cyanobacterium, and the associated microbial community).
