Decay Fungi from New Zealand Leaky Buildings: Isolation, Identification and Preservative Resistance [PDF]
Leaky buildings are those that show elevated moisture contents of the framing timber, which can subsequently lead to the establishment of fungal and bacterial decay.

Diversity of wood-inhabiting fungi in woodpecker nest cavities in southern Poland
Globally, tree-holes are important ecological component of forest and woodlands. Numerous microorganisms rely on cavities, both natural and those excavated by primary cavity nesting birds, mainly by woodpeckers, for their survival and reproduction ...

Niche partitioning is important for the coexistence of closely related species, allowing species to reduce overlap in resource use despite shared ecological requirements. In alpine environments, harsh climatic conditions and low habitat complexity constrain opportunities for ecological segregation, making seasonal resource fluctuation especially ...

Fungi are the principal wood decomposers in forest ecosystems and their activity provides wood necromass to other living organisms. However, the wood decay mechanisms and the associated microbial community are largely unknown, especially in Alpine areas.

Wood-Inhabiting Fungi of Barro Colorado
Fungi, primarily in the phylum Basidiomycota, are a principal driver of terrestrial wood decomposition. Despite considerable research on dead wood and decomposition in the Barro Colorado Nature Monument, relatively few studies have explored the composition of wood-inhabiting fungal communities.

Carabid and staphylinid communities are shaped by adjacent habitat type, prey availability and landscape context, influencing natural pest control across agricultural landscapes. Abstract BACKGROUND The functioning of agroecosystems depends on key ecosystem processes that deliver ecosystem services, yet agricultural management has increasingly shifted ...

A novel method of illustrating microfungi [PDF]
Composite line drawings in most cases can represent the morphological characters of a fungus better than digital photographic images. Even so, the use of line drawings for illustrating microfungi in published literature has declined.

Characteristics of intracellular peptidase and proteinase activities from the mycelium of a cord-forming wood decay fungus Serpula lacrymans [PDF]
Serpula lacrymans is a basidiomycete cord-forming wood decay fungus which reallocates nitrogen within an extensive perennial mycelial system in response to spatial discontinuities in external nutrient supply.
