Wood degrading ability and tolerance to wood-preserving chemicals
of several fungi isolated from Douglas-fir utility poles were
investigated by the agar-stick and soil-block methods. Birch (Betula.

Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] lumber was
converted to flakes, which were dip treated with three concentrations

Previous research on coarse woody debris (CWD) indicated that moisture
content and initial heterotrophic colonization of decaying wood can affect
the decomposition process. Six heterotrophic treatments were created to
...
The effects of natural preconditioning (source wood), wood species, and previous
exposure of wood to two types of fungi on the feeding rates and protozoa survival in the
Pacific dampwood termite Zootermopsis angusticol ...
Moisture intrusion in residential structures can lead to substantial fungal decay and this damage costs billions in repair/replacement costs. The extent of damage and the rate at which it occurs are primarily dependent o ...
