Here, we evaluated the combined effects of dissolved nutrients (nitrogen [N] and phosphorus [P]; three levels: concentration found in oligotrophic streams in the Cerrado biome, 10× and 100× enriched) and oxygen (O2; three levels: hypoxic [4% O2], depleted [55% O2], and saturated [96% O2]) on plant litter decomposition and associated fungal decomposers in laboratory microcosms simulating stream conditions under distinct scenarios of water quality deterioration. Senescent leaves of Maprounea guianensis were incubated for 10 days in an oligotrophic Cerrado stream to allow microbial colonization and subsequently incubated in microcosms for 21 days. Leaves lost 1.1–3.0% of their initial mass after 21 days, and this was not affected either by nutrients or oxygen levels. When considering simultaneous changes in nutrients and oxygen concentrations, simulating increased human pressure, fungal biomass accumulation, and sporulation rates were generally inhibited. Aquatic hyphomycete community structure was also affected by changes in nutrients and oxygen availability, with stronger effects found in hypoxic treatments than in depleted or saturated oxygen treatments. This study showed that the effects of simultaneous changes in the availability of dissolved nutrients and oxygen in aquatic environments can influence the activity and composition of fungal communities, although these effects were not translated into changes in litter decomposition rates. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/98656 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00248-017-1099-3 | Direitos: | openAccess |
