Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association A decline in tree vitality increased bark pH of Cryptomeria japonica.
- Association A decline in tree vitality decreased the electrical conductivity of the bark exudates of Cryptomeria japonica.
- Observation Seventeen myxomycete species were recorded in 74 Cryptomeria japonica trees.
- Association The structure of myxomycete communities varied between healthy and unhealthy Cryptomeria japonica trees.
- Association Myxomycete species diversity on Cryptomeria japonica bark increased as tree vitality declined.
- Association The relative abundance of Paradiacheopsis solitaria increased as Cryptomeria japonica vitality declined.
- Observation Acidophilic myxomycetes grew on healthy Cryptomeria japonica bark.
- Mechanism Changes in bark pH associated with vitality decline weakened bark acidity and shifted the myxomycete community structure of Cryptomeria japonica.
