Functiona-biodiversity of macrofungi associated with-eaf-itter decomposition in a subalpine coniferous forest

研究了亚高山针叶林大型真菌的物种丰富度和功能多样性。日本中部的Ontake。在为期一年的野外观察中，共记录了18个真菌类群。这些真菌类群中的大多数引起显着的能力，分解木质素的落叶在纯培养条件下。这些结果表明，非生物因素，如低温和短的生长季节可能是负责缓慢分解的森林。

Species richness and functional biodiversity of macrofungi were studied in a subalpine coniferous forest on Mt. Ontake, central Japan. A total of 18 fungal taxa were recorded during a one-year field observation. Most of these fungal taxa caused marked ability to decompose lignin in leaf litter under a pure culture condition. These results suggest that non-biological factors such as low temperature and short growing season may responsible for the slow decomposition in the forest.
