ABSTRACT
Effects of different pre-planting soil preparations and post-harvest wood debris applications in a clear-cut Scots pine plantation, on the abundance, diversity, and activity of culturable microorganisms were investigated. The investigation was done 9 years
after the re-plantings had been done. This formed part of an investigation of silvicultural practices for conservation and the biological control of
Armillaria
and
Heterobasidion
in northern temperate forests (Poland). The treatments being compared, were expected to
have altered the soil’s physical and chemical properties, and consequently, its biological properties. Only soft-rot microfungi from
the Ascomycota and Zygomycota were detected in the soil. Fungi, including those antagonistic to
Armillaria
and
Heterobasidion, were
more abundant after shallow ploughing than after deep ploughing or ridging, and where chipped rather than coarse wood debris was
left on the soil surface or incorporated. Scots pine trees had the most biomass and the least mortality after ridging and leaving coarse
wood debris on the surface (associated with only a relatively moderate abundance of fungi).
