Abstract: 
The lichen P. furfuracea (L.) Zopf was experimentally subjected to water stress. Decreasing the air humidity (RH, relative humidity) gave low values for water potential, but this was not accompanied by a marked accumulation of free proline. Only a 2-fold increase was observed. Similar responses were observed from investigations of six other amino acids.sbd.glutamic acid, glutamine, arginine, aspartic acid, asparagine and threonine. Proline and the other amino acids do not play an important role as osmotic regulants.
