Influence of acid rain components on radiocesium-137 desorption from Cetraria islandica (L.) Ach. lichen [PDF]
Desorption of 137Cs from Cetraria islandica (L.) Ach. lichen was performed by five consecutive desorptions with five identical solution volumes. Solutions of H2SO4, HNO3 and their mixtures, with pH 4.61, 5.15 and 5.75 were used for desorption.

Herbicidal and Plant-growth Stimulating Effects of Phenolic Compounds Isolated from Lichens
The depsides atranorin (7) and diffractaic acid (1), the depsidones hypostictic (2) protocetraric (3), salazinic (4) acids, the xanthone secalonic acid (5), and usnic acid (6) were evaluated for their phytotoxic potentials against the target species ...
