Bryophyte propagule bank in the Yukidori Valley, Langhovde, Antarctica
Distribution, species composition and possibilities of germination of the propagule bank of moss in Antarctic soils were investigated by cultural experiments. Soil samples were collected in the Yukidori Valley, Antarctica, and were incubated under laboratory conditions. After several weeks, fungi, a...
