Microhabitat diversity - A crucial factor shaping macrofungal communities and morphological trait expression in dead wood
Original language description
The majority of studies exploring the ecology of saprotrophic fungi have worked with individual logs as homogenous sampling units, neglecting the presence of microhabitats and inner complexity. Based on close to 7000 sporocarp records of more than 450 fungal taxa from 134 decaying beech logs we investigated microhabitat preferences in macrofungi and linked these to sporocarp traits. The respective microhabitats were defined by the local wood decay stage, vertical position on the fallen log and special habitat features (hollows, fracture surfaces, woody material fallen from the log). We found microhabitat associations to be non-random in relation to fungal community composition and sporocarp morphology, indicating an evolutionary link between dead wood niche and sporocarp morphology. While log-level fungal species richness peaked at intermediate decay stages, taxa with significant indicator values were skewed towards early and late decay stages, when defined at microhabitat decay level. This suggests that the commonly found peak in fungal species richness on dead logs in intermediate decay stages expresses a peak in niche diversity rather than a peak in taxa decay stage preferences.
