Microbial colonization dynamics of fungi and bacteria were analyzed in an intermittent Mediterranean forested stream using two different leaf substrata (Platanus acerifolia and Populus nigra). Results showed that fungal and bacterial biomass accumulation was stimulated on both leaves due to a floodi
## Abstract This study evaluated if there are differences in leaf breakdown and invertebrate colonization among tree species differing in quality (toughness), and which factors could influence these differences. Common alder leaves decomposed significantly faster then either sweet chestnut or Spani
