| pronounced ecological separation between two closely related lineages of the polyporous fungus gloeoporus taxicola. | gloeoporus taxicola is a saprotrophic polypore that produces annual fruit bodies, in scandinavia exclusively on coniferous wood. in this study, we demonstrate the existence of two ecotypes of g. taxicola in norway; a coastal lowland form fruiting on dead logs and dying branches of standing pinus sylvestris, and a highland form largely fruiting on trunks of picea abies in moist, old-growth forests. thus, a distinct ecological separation has happened between the two forms both concerning substrate ... | 2007 | 17590324 |
