Abstract

Objective: Urbanization has been reported to affect the biodiversity of myxomycetes. There is no data in the Bursa city on the diversity of myxomycete in the urban area. Therefore, we aim to determine the presence of corticolous myxomycetes on monumental trees that are located in the most populated province of Bursa city (Osmangazi and Yıldırım).
