Loss of diversity in wood-inhabiting fungal communities affects decomposition activity in Norway spruce wood
Hundreds of wood-inhabiting fungal species are now threatened, principally due to a lack of dead wood in intensively managed forests, but the consequences of reduced fungal diversity on ecosystem functioning are not known. Several experiments have shown that primary productivity is negatively affected by a loss of species, but the effects of microbial diversity on decomposition are less studied...
متن کاملNew species of wood inhabiting discomycetes of Helotilaes for Iran
Four species of wood inhabiting cup fungi belonging to order Helotiales are reported for the first time in Iran. Species are described and illustrated with photographs and drawings. Three genera Arachnopeziza, Hymenoscyphus and Lachnum are new records for Iran.
متن کاملNanostructure of cellulose microfibrils in spruce wood.
The structure of cellulose microfibrils in wood is not known in detail, despite the abundance of cellulose in woody biomass and its importance for biology, energy, and engineering. The structure of the microfibrils of spruce wood cellulose was investigated using a range of spectroscopic methods coupled to small-angle neutron and wide-angle X-ray scattering. The scattering data were consistent w...
متن کاملNutrient Dynamics and Decomposition rate of Norway Spruce Needles in Stråsan and Lajim stands
Climate changes due to changes in a habitat leads to differences in the rate of decomposition and nutrient dynamics of leaflitters, which has many effects on the controlling factors of the decomposition process. In the present study, the rate of decomposition and nutrient dynamics of Norway spruce was evaluated for 363 days in the two forestation sites in the natural and foreign habitats, ...
متن کاملUltrasound acoustic detection of cavitation events in water conducting elements of Norway spruce wood
Water in living conifer tree stems is transported in the sapwood area which consists of a network of small conducting elements, the tracheids. The liquid water in the conduits is under tension caused by evaporation from the needles, and thus in a metastable state which is maintained by cohesion between water molecules and adhesion of water to the conduit walls. The breakage of the liquid water ...
