Diagram of the transplantation experiment. CH₄ oxidation potentials at the time of sampling are included (±; values over 0.005 μmol g dry mass⁻¹ h⁻¹ were considered positive). Dominant Sphagnum species on transplantation sites were S. papillosum (sites A–C), S. cuspidatum (sites D and E), and S. majus (site F). The original site O and the transplanted immigrant mosses consisted of S. rubellum.
