Gregory J. Pec Cascading effects of insect outbreak on plant and fungal community structure and function by Gregory J. Pec A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ecology Biological Sciences University of Alberta © Gregory J. Pec, 2016 Abstract Western North American landscapes are rapidly being transformed by forest die- off caused by mountain pine beetle with implications for plant and soil communities. The mechanisms that drive changes in plant and soil community structure and function, particularly for understory vegetation and the highly prevalent ectomycorrhizal fungi in pine forests, are complex and intertwined. In this thesis, I use a recent bark beetle outbreak in lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) forests of western Canada to disentangle the relative importance of beetle- induced tree mortality from changes in environmental conditions following tree death, and in turn, its effects on: (1) understory plant community diversity and productivity, (2) the richness and composition of soil fungal communities, (3) the spatial structuring of ectomycorrhizal and saprotrophic fungal communities, and (4) the functional importance of ectomycorrhizal fungal networks on tree seedling establishment. My results indicate that both deterministic and stochastic processes structure plant and soil fungal communities following landscape-level insect outbreak and reflect both the independent and shared roles tree mortality, soil chemistry, and spatial distance play in regulating both these communities. My results also demonstrate that ectomycorrhizal fungal networks seemed to not be degraded with stand level tree mortality, with access to these networks improving both the growth and nutrition of tree seedlings. Taken together, this thesis demonstrates the far-reaching effects of biotic disturbance and emphasizes the interconnectedness between understory vegetation, trees, soils, and soil fungi. ii Preface A version of Chapter 2 of this thesis has been published as Pec G.J., J.

  • The Diversity of Fungi in Four Irish Forest Types by Richard O'hanlon B.Sc
    The diversity of fungi in four Irish forest types By Richard O’Hanlon B.Sc. (Ed) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, At the Faculty of Science and Engineering, University of Limerick, Ireland. Supervisor: Dr Thomas Harrington, Department of Life Sciences, University of Limerick. Submitted to the University of Limerick: May 2011 i ii “The task of an ecologist” There is an old story about a man who, returning home one night found his neighbour searching the ground beneath a street lamp. “Can I help you find something?” he asked. “I lost my key” replied the neighbour. “Do you know about where you dropped it?”, “Yes” replied the neighbour “over there” pointing to a dark corner of the street. “If you dropped it over there then why are you looking here” asked the man. “Because this is where the light is” replied the neighbour. The task of the ecologist is not to bring the search to where the light is, but to bring the light to where the search is. Perry et al. (2008) iii iv Abstract Sampling of the macrofungal sporocarps, ectomycorrhizal morphotypes and vascular plants was carried out in 28 plots from four forest types (ash, oak, Scot’s pine, Sitka spruce) between the years 2007 and 2009. A total of 409 macrofungal species, 51 ectomycorrhizal morphotypes and 68 vascular plant species were recorded over the three years. It was found that at equal sampling intensities, there were no significant differences in total macrofungal species or ectomycorrhizal morphotype richness between the oak, Scot’s pine and Sitka spruce forest types.

This report is an attempt to expand and consolidate these efforts by producing a list of nearly 1000 recommended English names. The species included were selected according to the frequency of their appearance on the British Mycological Society database (BMSFRD) or their being of conservation importance.
