ASAP‐MS and DART‐MS as ancillary tools for direct analysis of the lichen metabolome
Abstract Introduction Lichens contain unique metabolites that most often need to be characterized from a limited amount of material. While thin layer chromatography is still the preferred analysis method for most lichenologists, liquid chromatography gives a deeper insight in the lichen metabolome, but an extractive step is needed before any analysis ...

Abstract Introduction In recent years, LC‐MS has become the golden standard for metabolomic studies. Indeed, LC is relatively easy to couple with the soft electrospray ionization. As a consequence, many tools have been developed for the structural annotation of tandem mass spectra.

Anti‐Inflammatory Potential of Compounds Isolated from Tunisian Lichens Species
Abstract The lichen's special symbiotic structure enables it to produce bioactive substances. They have historically been recognized for their aesthetic and medicinal benefits. Furthermore, in recent years, they have performed in various fields, including perfumery, dyeing, and pharmacology due to their rich secondary metabolites.

Abstract We propose that a qualitative trait approach based on more detailed nuanced traits may reveal previously overlooked patterns, especially when combined with phylogenetic perspectives. By sampling epiphytic lichens and using a functional approach based on nuanced qualitative traits, such as a much greater resolution over photobiont identity ...

Chemical properties of key metabolites determine the global distribution of lichens
In lichen symbioses, secondary metabolites produced by the lichen fungi (mycobionts) provide UV protection on which trebouxioid green algae as the most prominent photobionts sensitively depend. These metabolites differ in their UV absorbance capability and solvability and therefore vary in their propensity of being leached from the lichen body by high ...

Introduction. Lichens, due to the presence of own secondary metabolites such as depsidones and depsides, became a promising source of health‐promoting organisms with pharmacological activities. However, lichens and their active compounds have been much less studied.

Primary biosynthetic enzymes involved in the synthesis of lichen polyphenolic compounds depsides and depsidones are non-reducing polyketide synthases (NR-PKSs), and cytochrome P450s.

A new hopan‐type triterpenoic peracid, tinctoride A (1), together with three known compounds, zeorin (2), 6β,22‐dihydroxyhopane (3), and ergosterol peroxide (4), was isolated from Parmotrema tinctorum (Despr. ex Nyl.) Hale. Their chemical structures were identified by extensive 1D and 2D NMR analysis and high‐resolution mass spectroscopy and compared ...

We investigate species boundaries and the potential for micro‐endemism for a charismatic genus of lichen fungi occurring in Baja California. Genome‐scale data support high species‐level diversity, along with high levels of endemism, while highlighting the problem of delimiting species, particularly in groups with complex, recent phylogeographic ...
