High spots for diversity of soil and litter microfungi in Italy

摘要: Abstract Soil fungal diversity plays a fundamental role in delivering key ecosystem goods and services. This article assesses of saprobic soil litter microfungi, as taxonomical functional components which affect above- below-ground relationships within Alpine Mediterranean regions Italy. We highlighted biodiversity high spots focusing on four research topics that have been developed over time are currently progress Preliminary quantitative data concerning microfungi the Raethian Alps showed strong reduction Colony Forming Unit (CFU)s with altitude. Keratinophilic natural anthropogenic environments were widespread among filamentous fungi 121 species isolated Italy since 1960. Heat stimulated region soils values both abundance density even two years after experimental fire, Neosartorya spp. playing pivotal role. The Quercus...
