Abstract
Bacteria are known to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) as a storage substance, which has properties similar to those of petroleum-derived Polypropylene. Therefore, it is important to find PHA producing bacteria, which cope with industrial demands. Among terrestrial ecosystems, the highly active lichen-associated bacterial communities are expected to be a bio-resource for PHA-producers.
