FUNGAL FLORA AND RATE OF DECOMPOSITION OF LEAF LITTER AT LOW TEMPERATURES

摘要: The succession of mycoflora and the rate decomposition a mixture coniferous–deciduous leaves were followed in laboratory over 45-mo period at 10, 4, 1 C. For leaf litter fall 3,000 kg/ha 6 mo it was estimated that these temperatures would give loss 660, 420, 270 kg/ha per yr, respectively. each 1 degree C drop temperature, decreased approximately 1.8%. washed particles incubated on agar plates corresponding to those incubating showed 50% all isolates belonged genus Chrysosporium. next most abundant genera Mucor 22%, Penicillium, 15%. These three present every sampling date frequency Chrysosporium consistently increased as temperature decreased, whereas opposite trend. Penicillium more common 4 than 10 C. remaining 9 isolated with less...
