Preliminary scope of work
Saprotrofní houby patří mezi hlavní rozkladače odumřelé organické hmoty v půdě ? opadaného listí, větviček a dalších biomolekul. Mezi houbovými rozkladači mají specifické místo saprotrofní basidiomycety, které jsou jako jediné schopny rozkládat lignin ? polyfenolický polymer, který je stavební jednotkou dřeva, ale i opadaného listí. Cílem práce je (1) charakterizovat společenstvo hub v lesní půdě a relativní podíl saprotrofních basidiomycet s ohledem na vertikální stratifikaci půdy a na fázi rozkladu opadu; (2) pokusit se korelovat aktivitu enzymů rozkládajících lignocelulózu a množství biomasy hub či přítomnost basidiomycet v průběhu rozkladu opadu.
Preliminary scope of work in English
Saprotrophic fungi are the major decomposers of dead organic mass in the soil, e.g. fallen leaves, twigs and other biomolecules. Among fungal decomposers, saprotrophic basidiomycetes play a unique role due to their ability to efficiently degrade lignin ? a polyphenolic polymer that is one of the main components of wood and litter. The aim of this work is (1) to characterise the fungal community in a forest soil with respect to the occurrence of saprotrophic basidiomycetes in soil profile and in different phases of litter transformation; (2) to correlate the activity of lignocellulose-degrading enzymes with fungal biomass and the occurrence of basidiomycetes in the course of litter transformation.
