The results showed that the logarithmic values of bacterial concentrations ranged from 5.477 to 7.380; the logarithmic values of fungal concentrations ranged from 5.301 to 6.903; the logarithmic values of actinomycetes concentrations ranged from 5.740 to 7.000; the logarithmic values of cellulose-degrading bacterial concentrations ranged from 4.301 to 6.447; the logarithmic values of lignin-degrading bacterial concentrations ranged from 4.415 to 6.799. During the decomposition of bamboo stump, all the microorganisms grew rapidly at the initial stage; the logarithmic values of bacterial, fungal and actinomycetes concentrations changed constantly at the middle stage; and the logarithmic values were all higher at the late stage.There were assistance and competition among microorganism to certain extent. Understanding the decomposition rule of bamboo stump before its cutting down can provide some reference for the future decomposition of bamboo stump, and provide basic data for the isolation of microorganisms from bamboo stump at the species level.展开更多

In view of this, a preliminary assessment of the dipteran immatures inhabiting the stumps of bamboo groves in the Darjeeling Himalayas was carded out at a spatial scale. Of the 104 stumps of Dendrocalamus hamiltoni surveyed, 70 were found to host immatures of three dipteran species, the mosquitoes Aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus and the midges Chironomus sp. in varying densities. Though the stumps varied in diameter, in each stump on average 12. 1 immatures were found. The abundance of the immatures was positively correlated with the diameter of the stumps （r = ＋0.382; P 〈 0.001） but negatively with the pH of the water present in the stumps （r = -0.336; P 〈 0.01）. The coefficient of association was found to be ＋8.4 for the Ae. aegypti and Chironomus immatures, while in the rest of the species pair the association seemed to be independent. Thus it can be concluded that the stumps in the bamboo groves of Darjeeling Himalayas provides a favourable habitat for the mosquito and chironomid immatures.展开更多
