Coarse woody debris provides co-benefits between carbon stock and diversity of polypore fungi in Malaysian forest stands

There is a high expectation for forest ecosystems to provide several ecosystem services simultaneously. In this study, positive relationships between the amount of carbon stock in coarse woody debris (CWD) and the diversity of polypore fungi were examined in six primary stands and 19 secondary stan...

In this study, positive relationships between the amount of carbon stock in coarse woody debris (CWD) and the diversity of polypore fungi were examined in six primary stands and 19 secondary stands with different stand ages (12‒81 years) of tropical rain forests in Malaysia.

According to our findings, primary forests are critically important for the conservation of biodiversity and carbon stock, and old secondary forests with higher carbon stock in CWD have a potential to sustain a high level of diversity of polypore fungi.
