Wood under fresh water: Effect on the chemical properties and on decay resistance
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of waterlogging on the chemical properties and on decay resistance of two fast-growing eucalypt species. Samples of spotted gum and rose gum wood were placed underwater and taken out at different times: after 4, 8 ...

Responses of ectomycorrhizal fungi to mineral substrates [PDF]
Boreal forest soils are complex, heterogeneous growth substrates where organic and mineral components provide nutrient resources for soil organisms and plants. Mineral nutrients are cycled between living and dead organic components of the forest soil and

Diversity of bryophyte flora and vegetation on rotten wood in rain and montane forests of northeastern Tanzania [PDF]
Decomposing wood forms the substrate for special lignicolous, hygrophilous, and sciophilous plant communities. In a moist tropical forest, vegetation on this substrate consists mostly of bryophytes. The material gathered from Mt.
