Which factors influence the occurrence and density of tree microhabitats in Mediterranean oak forests (2013, background): “Many fungi and insects are also associated with dead substrates (Grove, 2002; Lassauce et al., 2011; Lonsdale et al., 2007); thus, microhabitats may not be the only factor driving biodiversity on snags.”
Disturbance and diversity of wood-inhabiting fungi: effects of canopy gaps and downed woody debris (2014, background): “Specifically, organisms that require woody substrates for survival, such as wood-inhabiting fungi, may be placed at risk because harvesting generally reduces the abundance and quality of woody substrates (Lonsdale et al. 2008; Toivanen et al. 2012).”
Natural regeneration in Central-European subalpine spruce forests: Which logs are suitable for seedling recruitment? (2012, background): “The colonization pattern of seedlings on logs in relation to their decay stage found in this study was similar to those found in the subalpine coniferous forests of Japan (Mori et al., 2004; Narukawa et al., 2003; Takahashi et al., 2000) and Poland (Zielonka, 2006).”
Impacts of climate change on plant diseases—opinions and trends (2012, background): “However, they can also in some cases help increase the supply of deadwood across forests, where management has resulted in a decline of this important requirement for biodiversity conservation (Calder and Kirkpatrick 2008; Lonsdale et al. 2008; Cobb et al. 2012).”
