Gwero la Vanillin, Syritic Aldehyde, Dimethyl Sulfoxide, Lignagn (Deallline) akhoza kukhala owonjezera phenolic plarucs, esp ya matope a phula), kuti muchepetse madongosolo.

Kuwonekera kwathunthu kwa zidole kumafotokozedwa ngati kutukuka (amapanga zopyapyala ndi kuthyolatu), Fayilo kapena Fluticose (mawonekedwe owongoka). Lichens imakula pang'onopang'ono kuchokera kwa mamilimita angapo mpaka mamita angapo. Amaberekanso makamaka ndi chitukuko cha apoothecia kapena perithekiya, ndikupanga zilonda zatsopano pakumera kwa a ASCOSore pamaso pa gulu la gulu lankhondo lomwe kumwalira.
Pafupifupi mankhwala 700, omwe ali osiyana ndi machesi, amathandizira lichens kuti apulumuke ndikuchotsa mabakiteriya, mtundu wina bowa ndi ma herbivores.
Lichens ndi m'magulu amtundu wa dothi ndikuthandizira kukhazikika panthaka, makamaka m'malo achipululu. Cyanochehens amathandizira kukonza nayitrogeni ku chilengedwe momwe amakulira. Licegar adagwiritsidwa ntchito pozindikiritsa zaka za pansi (pomwe amalima) mwa njira, yotchedwa Lichenometry ..
Ziweto ndi zisonyezo za kuipitsa chifukwa cha kuzindikira kwawo kwa sulufule dioxide (so2), nayirogeni dioxide (No) ndi kukhazikika kwamphamvu ndi ma radionuclides ..
Zinthu monga mapangidwe, poizoni, maantibayotiki, ndi zina zambiri zochokera ku lichens, zomwe ndizothandiza kwambiri monga gwero la utoto (mwachitsanzo, Roccella, kupereka ma mafuta. Lichens ina, monga ma a Iceland moss ndi reindeer moss, amagwiritsidwa ntchito ngati chakudya ku Arctic.
