#Deadwood consists of #ephemeral #biochoria, #temporary #habitats, with #decomposition by numerous specific #organisms, e.g. bacteria, #arthropods and most important diverse #fungi, some of which are shown below on a deadwood branch in #Berlin..#Fungus #Cremastra appendiculata seems being involved. L. Wang et al. (2024) studied this fungus as #symbiont supporting seeds of orchid #Cremastra #appendiculata to #germinate.

#Germinate 10 keep the healthiest!
