Fatty acid (FA) compositions in leaves were investigated for two families of F(1) hybrids of Larix gmelinii var. japonica x L. kaempferi (F(1)) and their parent clones. Twenty-one FAs, from C(12) to C(32), were found in the leaves of both adult trees and seedlings. The levels of 18:1/(18:2 + 18:3)
Soil microbial community dynamics during the spring freezing-thawing period could affect carbon and nutrient cycling in the subsequent growing season. During spring soil freezing-thawing period, we monitored temporal dynamics of soil microbial community in different soil substrates for Larix
