Keys to spores of the genera of
hypogeous fungi of North temperate florests with special reference to animal mycophagy.
The effects of thinning and broadcast burning on sporocarp production of
hypogeous fungi.
Hypogeous germination occurs when the epicotyl emerges and cotyledons remain below the soil surface.
Quantification of sporocarps produced by
hypogeous fungi.
At that time,
hypogeous fungi were known to contain high levels of nitrogen, vitamins and minerals, and to be major dietary items for many rodents and other small mammals.
Permanent water sources help create a moist microclimate and often contain shallow soils that are conducive to the growth of hemlocks, spruce and fir and the
hypogeous fungi associated with their root systems (Meyer and North, 2005; Meyer et al., 2007).
Scrutinized as a biological control agent of
hypogeous insects, B.
hypogeous seed germination--when the epicotyl emerges and the cotyledons remain below the soil surface.
1 kg) kangaroo-like marsupials, which feed extensively on the
hypogeous fruiting bodies of ectomycorrhizal fungi (Christensen 1980; Seebeck et al.
Mushroom is a macrofungus with a distinctive fruiting body, which can either be epigeous or
hypogeous and large enough to be seen with naked eye and to be picked by hand [3].
These species play important roles in dispersing seeds and
hypogeous fungi, thereby influencing structure and composition of forests (Janzen, 1971; Maser et al., 1978; Johnson, 1996; Cousens et al., 2008).
