  • Environmental factors influencing the rate of spread of Phellinus weirii (Murr.) Gilbertson in young-growth Douglas-fir

    Creator:
    Angwin, Peter A.
    Abstract:
    Studies to identify the environmental factors that influence the rate of ectotrophic mycelial growth of Phellinus weirii (Murr.) Gilbertson along Douglas-fir roots were undertaken both in the laboratory and in the field. The effects of soil pH, nitrogen, moisture, temperature, microorganisms and bulk density were investigated. In the lab, the...

  • Genetics of sexuality and population genetics of Phellinus weirii

    Creator:
    Angwin, Peter A.
    Abstract:
    Phellinus weirii (Murr.) Gilbertson, cause of laminated root and butt rot, is a heterothallic basidiomycete lacking clamp connections. Two biological species groups of the fungus have been hypothesized, the Douglas-fir and cedar-types, on the basis of physiological, morphological and epidemiological differences. Single-spore and vegetative isolates differ in cultural morphology, nuclear...
