Changes in microfungi and fauna of burned and unburned soils in a Mediterranean area of southern italy
The effect of experimental fires on fungi and fungivorousmicroarthropods was investigated in a coastal area of southernItaly. In particular, in burned soils affected by different severity fires (low and high) the following parameters were determined at 245 (March 2001), 364 (July 2001) and 728 (July...
