PARASITIC MACROFUNGI IN FOREST ECOSYSTEMS
Özet
Among the whole living organisms, macrofungi can degrade lignin. Although this ability of macrofungi is very important for ecosystems, sometimes it can be trouble for living organism and ecosystems. Some of these macrofungi can be parasite for living trees. Especially, Fomes sp., Phellinus sp. Trametes sp. Ganoderma sp. etc. live on the living trees, such as Pinus sp., Salix sp., Fagus sp., Populus sp., Platanus sp., Liquidambar orientalis. These fungi damage the forest ecosystem by means of death of the trees. It must be developed some new techniques and tools for protecting the healthy forests.
