Eucalyptus plantations affect fungal communities associated with leaf-litter decomposition in Iberian streams (2006, background): “As observed before (Bärlocher et al. 1995, Chauvet et al. 1997, Bärlocher & Graça 2002, Pascoal et al. 2005), F. curvula did not attain the same abundances in Portugal as it did in Spain (0.1–14.4 % vs. 44.1–89.2 %), which could be explained by the higher water temperatures in Portuguese streams…”
Synergistic effects of water temperature and dissolved nutrients on litter decomposition and associated fungi (2011, background): “Nutrient enrichment has also been reported to induce shifts in dominance of fungal communities, maybe due to changes in species interactions (Gulis & Suberkropp, 2003a; Pascoal et al., 2005a; Ferreira et al., 2006b; Artigas et al., 2008).”
Diversity and activity of aquatic fungi under low oxygen conditions (2009, background): “Similarly, Pascoal et al. (2003, 2005b), Pascoal, Cássio & Marvanová (2005a), and Pascoal & Cássio (2004) observed accelerated leaf decomposition with increased nutrient loading in a stream, except in a section with low current velocity and dissolved O2.”
Stimulation of leaf litter decomposition and associated fungi and invertebrates by moderate eutrophication : implications for stream assessment (2006, background): “The last two approaches may indeed add robustness and sensitivity to the tool (Gessner & Chauvet, 2002; Pascoal et al., 2005a).”
