Notes on the circumscription of the lichens Lecanora leprosa and L. sulphurescens (Lecanoraceae, lichenised Ascomycotina) [PDF]
, 2013 Lecanora leprosa and L. sulphurescens are two commonly misidentified pantropical lichens. A detailed circumscription is presented to help overcome such difficulties. Both species contain a chemosyndrome of chlorodepsidones based on gangaleoidin.

A Biosynthetic and Taxonomic Atlas of the Global Lichen Holobiont
Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2025.This analysis of 794 publicly available lichen shotgun metagenomic datasets, covering 467 unique lichen species from 34 countries, revealed that lichens are complex holobionts. They harbour a variety of fungal, algal, and bacterial players with remarkable biosynthetic capabilities.

Lichen and Its Microbiome as an Untapped Source of Anti‐Biofilm Compounds
Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 4, April 17, 2025.Lichens and their associated fungi give rise to the evaluation of several extracts and compounds against biofilms. ABSTRACT Lichen substances have been first described in the 1870s, and around 10 000 compounds have been isolated and characterized. Most of them have been evaluated for their activity on planktonic microorganisms (bacteria and fungi ...

Conventional and innovative approaches to black fungi control for stone heritage preservation
IUBMB Life, Volume 77, Issue 3, March 2025.Abstract Black Meristematic Fungi (BMF) are characterized by a thick melanized cell wall and an isodiametric cellular expansion. BMF represent one of the most damaging groups of microorganisms causing the deterioration of outdoor exposed stone monuments mainly due to the formation of dark spots and patches leading to the darkening of their surface ...

Lichen Polyphenolic Compounds for the Eradication of Candida albicans Biofilms
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Lichens, due to their symbiotic nature (association between fungi and algae), constitute a chemical factory of original compounds. Polyphenolic compounds (depsides and depsidones) are the main constituents of lichens and are exclusively biosynthesized by
