Ecological study of aquatic hyphomycetes on leaves in a warm-water stream
Abstract
dc:descriptionA three-year field study of aquatic hyphomycete communities in a warm-water stream in Illinois was carried out. Two peaks in total frequencies of aquatic hyphomycetes on randomly collected leaves occurred in each year. In contrast, only a single peak in total conidial concentration in water was observed. While total conidial concentrations in water and total frequencies of the species on leaves in each month were moderately correlated, correlation coefficients between species frequencies on leaves and their conidial concentrations in water in each month were not consistent over time. Species composition and relative frequencies in the communities differed at the same time in successive years, suggesting seasonal influences on community structure.
