Overview

Randomized trial reveals macrofungal diversity in two forest types, highlighting ecological differences.

Key Points

  • This study investigates the diversity and distribution patterns of macrofungi across different forest types in Motuo County.
  • Conducted from 2021 to 2025, collecting 2286 vouchered fungal specimens.
  • Identified 534 species based on morphological and molecular data.
  • Compared species composition and richness between tropical monsoon and evergreen broad-leaved forests.
  • Found 439 species (82.21%) endemic to a single forest type, with only 95 shared.
  • The evergreen broad-leaved forest had higher macrofungal richness and a greater proportion of ectomycorrhizal fungi (25.32% vs. 14.06%).
  • Documented 15 dominant families, representing about 53.37% of all species identified.
