Medina-Villar, SilviaAlonso, A.Vázquez de Aldana, Beatriz R.Pérez Corona, EstherCastro Díez, Pilar2023-06-202023-06-202012https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/45972The exotic tree species, Ailanthus altissima and Robinia pseudoacacia, invade riparian zones of Iberian Peninsula. Exotic leaves contain different physico-chemical characteristics to native leaves, so decomposition process may be different. We designed a decomposition experiment in order to assess the impact of exotic leaf litter on stream nutrient cycle and fungi biomass. Our results suggest that Populus alba (native tree), replacement by A. altissima can accelerate the nutrient cycle and overtake the fungi colonization. In contrast, Fraxinus angustifolia (native tree), replacement by R. pseudoacacia can decelerate the nutrient cycle.spaAtribución 3.0 Españahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/conference outputhttp://eei2012.blogspot.com/p/blog-page.htmlopen access57458biomasa fúngicadescomposición de hojasfósforonitrógenofungi biomassleaf decompositionnitrogenphosphorusBotánica (Biología)Ecología (Biología)2417.03 Botánica General2401.06 Ecología animal
