Abstract

A lichen is a complex microorganism comprising fungi and algae. Various lichens are commonly found in cultural heritage and are reportedly related to weathering. Lichens are commonly studied in Europe; however, few reports exist on lichens in Korean cultural heritage. The present study was conducted as part of the Korean National Arboretum's "A study on the Fungus and Lichen." We report the lichen diversity found at the Placenta Chambers of King Sejong's Sons, Seongju. A total of 65 lichens were collected from 19 placenta chambers and one memorial stone. We identified 40 species belonging to 10 genera, 17 families, and 23 orders. Morphological identification revealed that foliose lichens in the form of leaves(24, 36.9%) and crustose lichens in the form of crust(24, 36.9%) were distributed at a higher percentage than that of fruticose lichen in the form of branches(17, 26.2%). Xanthoparmelia coreana(foliose lichen) and Lepraria sp.(crustose lichen) were the most collected lichens and were distributed on 19 chambers. In addition, Clodonia, a fruticose lichen, had the highest species diversity with eight species. The highest species diversity of lichens was identified on the chamber of Prince Kyeyang(16 lichens), whereas the chamber of Prince Geumsung had the lowest species diversity(five lichens). This study will be used as primary data for the study of distribution of lichen diversity in Korean cultural heritage.

지의류는 효모를 포함하는 곰팡이와 조류의 공생체로 복합미생물이다. 지의류의 다양한 종들은 문화재에서 흔히 발견되며 풍화작용과도 관련되어 있는 것으로 보고되어 유럽에서는 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔다. 그러나 우리나라의 문화재에서 지의류에 관한 연구 보고는 거의 이루어지고 있지 않다. 본 연구는 국립수목원에서 진행하는 생활권 및 특수지역에 서식하는 버섯·지의류 탐색 및 분류 연구 조사의 일환으로 수행되었으며 성주 세종대왕자 태실의 지의류상 조사에서 밝혀진 내용을 보고한다. 총 19기의 태실로부터 총 65점의 지의류를 채집하였으며, 채집된 지의류를 형태학 및 분자생물학적으로 동정한 결과 3강 10목 17과 23속 40종이 밝혀졌다. 형태학적 분류 결과 잎의 형태를 띠는 엽상지의류(24점, 36.9%)와 딱지 형태를 띠는 가상지의류(24점, 36.9%)가 나뭇가지 형태를 띠는 수지상지의류(17점, 26.2%)에 비해 높은 비율로 분포하였다. 이들 중 엽상지의류에 속하는 Xanthoparmelia coreana가 가장 많이 채집되었으며, 가상지의류인 Lepraria sp.가 19기 태실 모두에 분포하였다. 또한 수지상 지의류인 Cladonia속이 8종으로 종 다양성이 가장 높았다. 계양군 태실에서 16종의 지의류가 채집되어 가장 높은 종 다양성을 보인 반면, 금성대군 태실의 경우 5종의 지의류가 채집되어 가장 낮은 종 다양성을 보였다. 본 연구는 우리나라 문화재에 분포하는 지의류 종 다양성 연구에 기초자료로 활용될 것이다.
