Diversity of secondary lichen metabolites was studied in epiphytic lichens on six phorophytes—spruce, pine, birch, alder, aspen and poplar in the Middle Urals of Russia. Atranorin, usnic, fumarprotocetraric acid, zeorin, and gyrophoric acid were found in

Lichen specific thallus mass and secondary compounds change across a retrogressive fire-driven chronosequence [PDF]
In the long-term absence of major disturbances ecosystems enter a state of retrogression, which involves declining soil fertility and consequently a reduction in decomposition rates.

ABSTRACT Introduction Lichexanthones are the major xanthones found in lichens. They present a high degree of isomerism, which makes their identification tedious. Xanthones are known to occur in lichens according to chemosyndromes, and these compounds act as chemotaxonomic markers.

Host tree identity drives bark physico‐chemical filters (e.g., pH, metals) that shape epiphytic communities. We show that species‐specific functional traits, such as lichen substances and bryophyte growth forms, mediate these responses. Lichen metal homeostasis and bryophyte growth habit create distinct species thresholds and community change points ...

Effect of lobaric acid on Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in breast cancer. ABSTRACT Lichen secondary metabolites with many remarkable biological activities are used in cancer treatments due to their low side effects and high anticancer potential. In particular, these metabolites constitute an interesting research area in cancer treatments due to their potential
