Abstract

The fatty acid composition of lichens and their symbionts was determined. In lichens, linoleic and oleic acids were the most abundant and these acids were also rich in their phyco- and mycobionts. A small amount of arachidonic acid was detected in some of the lichens and their phyco- and mycobionts.
