BRYOMOLECULES - D2.2 Report on phytochemical profile of 80 collected liverwort accessions

The Bryomolecules project set for this deliverable that the metabolomic profiles resulting fromthe around 40 accessions of liverworts coming from axenic culture and about 40 coming fromwild-collected material will be reported and organized in a summary table that will serve in themetabolic gene identification (WP3; T3.2) and the project public database (WP3; T3.3). The reportwill also include conclusions on chemical diversity and chemotaxonomy of European liverworts.This document presents a comprehensive metabolomic characterisation of 86 liverwortaccessions which correspond to 36 liverwort species originating from both axenic cultures andwild-collected material within the BRYOMOLECULES project. The title of this deliverableoriginally referred to 80 accessions. However, the dataset was expanded to 86 because some ofthis samples became relevant for the research and the report reflects this updated numberconsistently.Using a combination of complementary extraction strategies and advanced analytical platforms(GC–MS and LC–HRAM–MS/MS), a broad spectrum of metabolites was detected and annotated,including terpenoids, bibenzyls, bisbibenzyls, phenolic compounds, and lipid derivatives.The dataset demonstrates high chemical diversity and strong taxon-specific metabolite patterns,supporting chemotaxonomy, bioprospecting, and downstream applications such as pathwayelucidation and heterologous production.
