Can Parietin Transfer Energy Radiatively to Photosynthetic Pigments? [PDF]
The main role of lichen anthraquinones is in protection against biotic and abiotic stresses, such as UV radiation. These compounds are frequently deposited as crystals outside the fungal hyphae and most of them emit visible fluorescence when excited by ...

Oxidation reactions are required to produce atranorin from acetate by alginate-immobilized cells of Cladonia verticillaris. [PDF]
Atranorin, a p-depside of the b-orcinol series, is produced by several Cladonia species. Immobilized cells of Cladonia verticillaris in calcium alginate are able to produce atranorin when they are supplied with 1.0 mM acetate as a precursor.
