Aims Epiphytes are an abundant and diverse component of many wet temperate forests and have significant roles in ecosystem processes.Little is known about the processes and rates of their death and decomposition when ...
Aims Epiphytes and hemiparasites do not have direct access to soil nutri-ents.Epiphytes acquire nutrients through symbiosis,foliar leachates and throughfall,whilst hemiparasites have specialized structures(haustoria)t...

Epiphytic plant species are an important part of biological diversity. It is therefore essential to understand the distribution pattern and the factors influencing such patterns. The present study is aimed at observin...
Endophytic and epiphytic fungal assemblages from stems of S.rotundifolia,a shrubby vine,were studied in order to(1)quantify differences and the degree of overlap between fungal communities of both micro-habitats,and(2...
