Frequency and distribution patterns of zoosporic fungi from moss-covered and exposed forest soils.

Abstract:

:Uniflagellate zoosporic "fungi" (=Chytridiomycota and the zoosporic protista Hyphochytriomycota) are common inhabitants of soil. However, at what scale differences in their spatial distribution can be detected is poorly known. The first objective of this study was to assess the association of organismal distribution and frequency with two microhabitats: moss-covered and exposed forest soils, at four macroscopically similar but spatially separate sites in the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains of Virginia. The second objective was to provide statistically either acceptance or denial of inferences derived from sampling regimes involving a more limited number of samples. To evaluate the scale where distributional differences may occur within a site, protocols involved four collection regimes and random point and linear transect sampling. Chytrid frequency on thalli of two moss genera was greatest in the soil surrounding and under the moss rhizoids. Random point sampling methods suggested differences in zoosporic fungal frequency between moss-covered soil and the exposed soil adjacent to mosses, as well as between two moss taxa. Linear transect sampling methods also suggested differences in zoosporic fungal frequencies between moss-covered soil and soil proximal to mosses. However, statistical analysis of random point samples using a goodness-of-fit test demonstrated that there was no significant difference in frequency of zoosporic fungi from moss-covered soil and exposed soil proximal to mosses. More importantly, there was a significant difference in the frequency of ubiquitous and common zoosporic fungal species between different moss/soil complexes. This study demonstrates that differences in chytrid distribution can be detected at a microscale while at a larger scale, similarity in frequency and distribution was found.
