Microfungi in ecosystems:fungal occurrence and activity in litter and soil.
The concept of fungal succession is critically examined and illustrated with different examples from litter decomposition. Most fungi exhibit a mixed decomposition function. The importance of the total N content for decomposition in litter is discussed in relation to the C/N ratio. A tropical microf...
