Integrative taxonomy is a fundamental part of biodiversity and combines traditional morphology with additional methods such as DNA sequencing or biochemistry. Here, we aim to establish untargeted metabolomics for use in chemotaxonomy. We used three thallose liverwort species Riccia glauca
Bibenzyls are a specialized metabolite class found throughout the plant kingdom. One of the most prolific producers of bibenzyls are liverworts, specifically plants of the Radula genera. These plants possess an incredible diversity of bibenzyls, prenylated bibenzyls and a few (bis)bibenz...
Functional ecology and biodiversity lack integrative reference data that combine the assessment of traits at different levels. Here, we integrate data from 16 field samples of complex thallose liverworts (order Marchantiales) collected from biological soil crust communities in Southern Sweden and...
