Exploring the Relationships Between Macrofungi Diversity and Major Environmental Factors in Wunvfeng National Forest Park in Northeast China

In this paper, we analyze the macrofungi communities of five forest types in Wunvfeng National Forest Park (Jilin, China) by collecting fruiting bodies from 2019-2021. Each forest type had three repeats and covered the main habitats of macrofungi. In addition, we evaluate selected environmental variables and macrofungi communities to relate species composition to potential environmental factors. We collected 1235 specimens belonging to 283 species, 116 genera, and 62 families. We found that , , , and were the most diverse family; further, , , , , and were the dominant genera in the area. The macrofungi diversity showed increasing trends from Siebold et Zuccarini forests to Fischer ex Ledebour forests. The cumulative species richness was as follows: forest A > broadleaf mixed forest B > , mix forest D ( was the dominant species) > and mix forest C ( was the dominant species) > forest (E). Ectomycorrhizal fungi were the dominant functional group; they were mainly in forest type A and were influenced by soil moisture content and content ( < 0.05). The wood-rotting fungus showed richer species diversity than other forest types in broadleaf forests A and B. Overall, we concluded that most fungal communities preferred forest types with a relatively high content. Therefore, the deliberate protection of forests proves to be a better strategy for maintaining fungal diversity in Wunvfeng National Forest Park.
