“…Un análisis de la relación entre el COS y su material parental, muestra que hay mayor cantidad de COS sobre rocas sedimentarias y metamórficas que sobre materiales piroclásticos (Cruz-Flores & Etchevers-Barra, 2011); no obstante, estos últimos materiales muestran una mayor cantidad de COS conforme va madurando el suelo (Peña-Ramírez, Vázquez-Selem, & Siebe, 2009 (Jonhson & Curtis, 2001). However, if large organic matter accumulation is allowed, this might backfire and cause large pools of C to be released as a result of catastrophic wildfires (Jandl et al, 2007).…”

“…The relationship between SOC and its parent material was analyzed, with results showing higher SOC over sedimentary and metamorphic rocks than over pyroclastic materials (Cruz-Flores & Etchevers-Barra, 2011); the latter materials exhibit an increased amount of SOC as the soil matures (Peña- Ramírez et al, 2009). Also soil carbon content is higher in fir than in pine forests (Acosta-Mireles, Carrillo- Anzures, & Díaz-Lavariega, 2009;Cruz-Flores & Etchevers-Barra, 2011).…”

“…Most of the above mentioned authors have carried out their studies considering only the superficial portion of the soil (from 5 to 40 cm deep), only Peña- Ramírez et al (2009) and Gamboa and Galicia (2012) have analyzed the whole profile, showing the amounts of SOC also present in the deeper soil horizons.…”

Correo-e: isabelrr@ciga.unam.mx (*Autor para correspondencia). RESUMENA nivel mundial, el suelo almacena dos veces más carbono que la atmósfera y casi el doble de la cantidad almacenada en la vegetación. La capacidad de almacenamiento de carbono de los suelos depende de sus propiedades y usos. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue analizar el contenido de carbono orgánico del suelo (COS), bajo diferentes condiciones forestales dentro de la Reserva de la Biósfera Mariposa Monarca en México. Para ello se definieron seis grupos de muestreo, basándose en tres condiciones del arbolado (conservado, aprovechado y perturbado) y dos tipos de vegetación (oyamel y pino-encino). Para cada grupo se calculó el contenido de carbono en cuatro perfiles de suelo completos (N=24), comenzando en el horizonte A. Los resultados muestran diferencias en el contenido de COS en suelos que se encuentran bajo diferentes tipos de vegetación y condiciones del arbolado. Los rodales de oyamel conservado tienen en promedio 153 MgC·ha -1 de COS, mientras que los aprovechados y perturbados tienen 95 y 125 MgC·ha We defined six sampling groups based on three forest conditions (conserved, harvested and disturbed) and two vegetation types (sacred fir and pine-oak). We calculated the carbon stock of four complete soil profiles in each group (N=24), starting with the A horizon. Results show differences in SOC content in soils under different forest types and forest conditions. Conserved sacred fir stands have an average SOC of 153 MgC·ha , respectively. Conserved forests hold 40-80 % of SOC within the A horizons. Therefore, SOC content should be taken into consideration when assessing the impact of forest management or any other forest conservation policy.

“…Three volcanoes with different eruption times and therefore contrasting soil development stages were selected within the protected area Corredor Biológico Chichinautzin: the young Chichinautzin volcano (1835 years BP), the middle-aged Guespalapa volcano (4200 years BP), and the old Pelado volcano (10000 years BP). Soil properties were analyzed extensively (Peña-Ramírez et al 2009) and soil quality appeared to improve with soil development. This volcanic chronosequence therefore forms an ideal framework to investigate the influence of soil parameters on ECM macrofungi composition without the bias of host tree species, age, or macroclimate effects.…”

“…Therefore, we carried out an extensive macrofungi survey in order to analyze in more detail how some selected soil variables were influencing particular fungal species. The contrasts in soil development across the chronosequence generated differences in soil nutrient status and quality: while older sites present a richer and more developed soil profile, young soils are only formed by an organic surface horizon (Peña-Ramírez et al 2009). Hence, we examined the influence of topsoil quality (total carbon and nitrogen contents, C:N ratio, available phosphorus) on the distribution of specific ECM sporomes.…”

Soil factors influencing ectomycorrhizal (ECM) sporome distribution in neotropical forests dominated by Pinus montezumae were examined at Sierra Chichinautzin, Mexico. Study sites were located on three volcanoes of different ages and ECM sporomes were collected during three consecutive years. Inocybe and Laccaria species were preferentially found at the youngest site, while Tricholoma and Russula species showed a more abundant distribution at the oldest site.

Soil microbes play critical roles in global biogeochemical cycles, but their succession patterns across long temporal scales have rarely been studied. In this study, soil samples were collected from three volcanoes in Wudalianchi, northeastern China: Laoheishan (LH, approximately 240 years old), Dongjiaodebushan (DJ, 0.45-0.6 million years old), and Nangelaqiushan (NG, 0.8-1.3 million years old). For each volcano, both southern (S) and northern (N) slope aspects were sampled. Soil microbial communities were analyzed using phospholipid fatty acid analysis (PLFA). The results showed that soil properties and microbial biomass changed perceptibly among different volcanoes and different slope aspects. Almost all of the detected soil nutrient contents of LH were lowest, and total microbial biomass of LH was 40 and 36% lower than those of NG and DJ, respectively. LH was significantly different from NG and DJ in soil microbial community structure with a higher relative abundance of fungi and a lower relative abundance of actinomycetes and bacteria. However, for the two ancient volcanoes (NG and DJ), soil microbial community structures were highly similar among different ages and different slope aspects. No difference was detected in any of the measured microbial indices, including richness, evenness, Shannon's diversity, Simpson's diversity and the relative abundance of different microbial groups. The results indicated that while soil microbial biomass may change across different soil environments after long-term succession, soil microbial community structure can remain relatively stable. The results further indicated that soil microbes may show different successional patterns in different stages of succession.
