Biodiscovery of Potential Antibacterial Diagnostic Metabolites from the Endolichenic Fungus Xylaria venustula Using LC–MS-Based Metabolomics

open access: yesBiology, 2021
Three species of the lichen Usnea (U. baileyi (Stirt.) Zahlbr., U. bismolliuscula Zahlbr. and U. pectinata Stirt.) and nine associated endolichenic fungi (ELF) were evaluated using a metabolomics approach.

Future Range Shifts and Diversity Patterns of Antarctic Lecideoid Lichens Under Climate Change Scenarios

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
Modeling of current and future spatial distribution of Antarctic lecideoid lichens shows that warming will strongly increase the potential habitat. Under three climate‐change scenarios, most fungal and algal partners are projected to expand inland. Overall, climate change drives widespread range shifts and promotes colonization of interior Antarctica ...

Ergostanes and Cytochalasin From the Fruiting Bodies of Xylaria longipes Nitschke and Their Cytotoxicity Evaluation

open access: yesJournal of Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Four ergostanes—ergosta‐7,22,24(28)‐trien‐3β‐ol (1), ergosta‐7,24(28)‐dien‐3‐one (2), ergosta‐7,22,24(28)‐trien‐3‐one (3), and ergosta‐4,6,8(14),22‐tetraen‐3‐one (4)—and one cytochalasin, zygosporin D (5), were isolated from Xylaria longipes. Two compounds, 2 and 3, are novel but have a similar structure to Compound (1), except for the keto group at ...

A Multifunctional and Possible Skin UV Protectant, (3R)-5-Hydroxymellein, Produced by an Endolichenic Fungus Isolated from Parmotrema austrosinense

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Lichens are considered a great bio-resource because they produce large numbers of secondary metabolites with many biological activities; however, they have not been cultivated under artificial conditions to date.

Biotechnological Potential of a Novel Strain of Fusarium proliferatum, a Terrestrial Fungus Adapted to Marine Environment

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2025.
A novel strain of Fusarium proliferatum was isolated from South Calabrian coasts (Italy) and molecularly characterised. Its rice cultures led to the identification of secondary metabolites with antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes, and with antioxidant properties.

The Importance of Within‐Log Sampling Replication in Bark‐ and Wood‐Inhabiting Fungal Metabarcoding Studies

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
Despite the widespread use of metabarcoding approaches in wood‐inhabiting fungal studies, there is currently no standardized procedure for sampling deadwood. Our methodological study supports that to gain a representative view of the fungal community composition in early decay‐stage deadwood, bark should be included in fungal surveys and that ...

Lichen-associated Fungal Community in Hypogymnia hypotrypa (Parmeliaceae, Ascomycota) Affected by Geographic Distribution and Altitude

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Lichen-associated fungal species have already been investigated in almost all the main growth forms of lichens, however whether or not they are homogeneous and constant within each lichen species are still inconclusive.

Simulated climate change impacts health, growth, photosynthesis, and reproduction of high‐elevation epiphytic lichens

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract Epiphytic lichens are especially threatened by accelerated climatic change at high elevations. All lichens are sensitive to atmospheric conditions. Treelines constrain epiphyte ability to migrate upward to follow suitable conditions. Thus, acclimation to changing conditions will likely determine their survival.

A Novel Cytotoxic Compound From the Endolichenic Fungus, Inhabiting the Lichen,

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2020
The lichen host, Amandinea medusulina , collected from mangrove habitats in Sri Lanka, and its associated endolichenic fungi were isolated and identified by rDNA-ITS sequence analysis and morphological features.
