Evaluation of diversity of wood-deteriorating organisms in tropical plantation forests in search for sustainable management

调查了热带相思人工林中木材退化生物白蚁和腐木真菌的多样性，并与天然林进行了比较，以实现可持续经营。结果表明，合理安排人工林保护区对维持木材退化生物的生物多样性是必不可少的，这促进了生物量的自然循环，而相思人工林加剧了森林的干燥，导致了动植物的剧烈变化。

Diversity of wood-deteriorating organisms, termites and wood-decaying fungi, in tropical Acacia plantation forests was surveyed in comparison with natural forests towards sustainable management. The results clearly indicate that well-organized arrangement of conservation areas in plantation forests is indispensable to maintain biodiversity of wood-deteriorating organisms, which promote natural recycling of biomasses, and that Acacia plantation enhances the dryness of the forest, resulting in the drastic faunal and floral changes.
