The Role of Secondary Metabolites and Bark Chemistry in Shaping Diversity and Abundance of Epiphytic Lichens

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
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]

open access: yes, 2012
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.

Dereplicative Combination of HPLC/DAD/MS and 2D NMR to Identify Lichexanthone Isomers in Lichen Extracts

open access: yesPhytochemical Analysis, Volume 37, Issue 2, Page 330-343, March 2026.
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.

Functional Traits Mediate Physico‐Chemical Niche Differentiation of Epiphytic Lichens and Bryophytes in Temperate Forests

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
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 ...

Lobaric Acid Exhibits Anticancer Potential by Modulating the Wnt/β‐Catenin Signaling Pathway in MCF‐7 Cells

open access: yesPharmacology Research &Perspectives, Volume 13, Issue 4, August 2025.
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
