Combined effects of litter features, UV radiation, and soil water on litter decomposition in denuded areas of the arid Patagonian Monte
(Springer, 2016-09)
Aims: We evaluated the combined effects of litter type, UV radiation, and soil water on litter decomposition processes in denuded areas of the arid Patagonian Monte. Methods: We conducted a manipulative experiment with ...
Fusarium equiseti LPSC 1166 and its in vitro role in the decay of Heterostachys ritteriana leaf litter
(Springer, 2018-03)
The role of microorganisms in litter degradation in arid and semi-arid zones, where soil and water salinization is one of the main factors limiting carbon turnover and decay, remains obscure. Heterostachys ritteriana ...
Changes in land cover resulting from the introduction of non‐native pine modifies litter traits of temperate forests in Patagonia
(Wiley, 2020-02)
Aims: Changes in land cover resulting from the introduction of non-native pine plantations and subsequent pine invasion is increasingly affecting forest areas in the Southern Hemisphere, and having negative impacts on ...
The role of leaf litter as a protective barrier for copper-containing pesticides in orchard soils
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021)
© 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.This study assessed the capacity of leaf litters to adsorb copper ions applied as a copper-based pesticide. Leaf litters ...
Litter Decomposition of Acacia caven (Molina) Molina and Lolium multiflorum Lam. in Mediterranean Climate Ecosystems
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2010)
Exotic litter of the invasive plant Ligustrum lucidum alters enzymatic production and lignin degradation by selected saprotrophic fungi
(National Research Council Canada-NRC Research Press, 2018-03)
Chemical changes in leaf input to forest soils have been reported to affect decay processes. In this work, litter mass loss and decomposition constants (k) during 200 days in solid-state fermentation of the native tree ...
Solar radiation exposure accelerates decomposition and biotic activity in surface litter but not soil in a semiarid woodland ecosystem in Patagonia, Argentina
(Springer, 2019-12)
Aims: Photodegradation of senescent plant material has been identified as an important vector of aboveground carbon (C) loss in aridland ecosystems, but the consequences for biotic activity and soil C in the field are not ...
