Metagenomes of Lichens Solorina crocea and Peltigera canina

Lichen genomes are usually considered genomes of separately cultured mycobiont and photobiont. Analysis of lichen metagenomes can give important information on specific lichen-associated microorganisms that can affect lichen metabolism. Here, we report a metagenome of peltigeralean lichens, containing cyanobacterial (Peltigera canina) and cyanobacterial/green algal (Solorina crocea) partners.
