Abstract:

Evidence of fungal activity expressed as typical decay patterns is described from silicified podocarpaceous wood from the Eocene of Patagonia, Argentina. Decay features consist of tracheids of the secondary xylem that are degraded, resulting in thin-celled, lignin-free, translucent, circular to elliptical areas, some of which have cells devoid of all cell wall components including lignin, hemicellulose, and cellulose, and other areas that show only partial simultaneous decay of all cell wall layers. These patterns conform to the white rot and its variant white pocket rot decay patterns produced by basidiomycetes and ascomycetes in gymnosperm and angiosperm wood in modern terrestrial ecosystems. Coagulated opaque bodies in the lumen of some cells and enlarged secondary walls may represent host reactions to infection or remains of metabolic products of fungal enzymatic activity. Similar decay patterns and reaction features have been described from fossil woods ranging in age from the Devonian to the present. This record expands the fossil record of wood rot fungi and underscores their importance as drivers of biological cycles in ancient terrestrial ecosystems. © 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS.
