The species composition of soil microfungal populations in-adjacent
stands of red alder, conifers, and mixed alder conifer correlated
strongly with the dominant vascular vegetation. A total of 92
species were isolated: 55 from the alder stand; 45 from the conifers;
and 46 from the mixed alder-conifer, with few species (16,...
During Biome 1, our primary objective was identification of the dominant fungi involved in litter decomposition. Two survey methods
were used: (1) a survey of macrofungi occurring on Watershed 2 based on fruiting bodies collected and cultures; and (2) a survey of microfungi on decomposing foliage based on cultures isolated...
