“…Heterogeneous age distribution and the presence of large trees in the stands also increase the number of potential sites for the establishment of regeneration. The maintenance of these stand structural and compositional factors can serve multiple purposes, since they also help the preservation of the diversity of other forest organism groups (birds, spiders, bryophytes, lichens, fungi, herbs), as explored in other investigations within the same project (Márialigeti et al 2009, Király and Ódor 2010, Nascimbene et al 2012, Samu et al 2014, Kutszegi et al 2015, Mag and Ódor 2015, Márialigeti et al 2016.…”

“…The most rich families ( Figure 2) were Polyporaceae (10 taxons), Xylariaceae (7 taxons), Mycenaceae (7 taxons), Diatrypaceae (6 taxons), Hypoxylaceae (6 taxons), and Inocybaceae (6 taxons). Other (B. nummularia, H. fragiforme, C. varius) are specific to beech forests, as beech wood colonizers, in Hungary [KUTSEGI & al. 2015] or Romania [TĂNASE & al.…”

Lignicolous fungi plays are a vital part of forest ecosystems in Europe. They are involved in Carbon cycle, through decay processes of woody debris. Very fine woody debris (VFWD) forms an important component of this dead wood, being found in any forest in the World. Among European and Romanian forests, Fagus spp. dominating forests are the most important broadleaved ecosystems, of great biotic and abiotic complexity. The present distribution of lignicolous fungi is mainly linked to trees distribution. In the context of climate change, European beech forests will also shift in distribution, structure and composition, triggering changes in lignicolous fungal communities and diversity as well. Considering this background, VFWD lignicolous diversity might be a future beech forests climate change indicator. This will bring the necessity of assessing the main climatic factors that are influencing the lignicolous fungal diversity distribution across European beech forests in Romanian's NorthEast Region. In the present study, our findings confirms the fact that macroclimate have a great influence on lignicolous mycodiversity in beech forests. It seems that minimum temperature and Gams Continentality Index explains approximately 48% of the mycodiversity variation. While dropping minimum temperatures and increasing Gams CI values, the lignicolous fungal richness will rise. While minimum temperature of January might be linked to a complex ecological and phonological framework, Gams CI is a known ecological indicator for optimum habitat of beech forests, which in turn influence lignicolous diversity distribution. Those climatic variables might characterize the relation between plants-fungi-climate in the near future, as increasing atmospheric temperatures will manifest at different scales. Thereafter, VFWD mycodiversity might function as a valuable macroclimatic changing indicator.

“…Ecological data are well obtained (diversity index, similarity index, frequency, presence, density, and importance), and some macrofungi can be categorized as edible or inedible macrofungi. This method also has been considered by Kuszegi et. al (2015), by a reason large total area about 31.500 m 2 for sampling units and wide research purposes, they needed simple methods using sporocarp surveys to conduct characterizing the macrofungal composition with quadrat fixed plot 5x5 m in two years sampling (3 time sampled each sampling unit per year).…”

Diversity of macrofungi is widely studied because of its role as decomposer, and highly reported of its potentially using for foods, agricultures, medicinal purposes, and bioremediation. This study was carried out to consider sampling methods for macrofungi exploration especially in Turgo tropical forest ecosystem. There were two sampling method models which adequately bring our macrofungi collection to have valid data. The first is adaptive sampling which includes fixed-size plots where prior we decided how many tracks, plots, or what size to examine at each site to help keeping our focus on track. By having a fixed plot, we allowed ourselves to find our macrofungi and work on the identification process thoroughly without racing against the time as much. Then we can obtain frequency, distribution, density and others ecological quantitative data by sampling plots. Another way, we can choose opportunistic sampling, we mean carefully walking on through chosen site as study area and collecting conspicuous sporocarp of macrofungi. This method needs no plots and does not produce any quantitative data but looking for many more diversity on macrofungi. The way of sampling, depends on the duration of observation and the purposes of the research. According to the consideration result, we concluded to choose the adaptive sampling method to explore the macrofungi in Turgo tropical forest ecosystem.
