The potential of 9 bacterial and 6 fungal isolates to
protect wood against wood staining microorganisms was
studied using small sapwood samples of unseasoned Ponderosa
pine [Pinus ponderosa Laws] sapwood. Bacillus subtilis Cohn,
isolate 733 A , Gliocladium virens J.H. Miller, J.E. Giddens
& A.A. Foster isolate H 3 and...
The ability of 15 bacterial and fungal isolates to inhibit fungal stain of ponderosa pine sapwood was studied on small wood samples exposed in a moist environment. Several isolates including Bacillus subtilis were capable of inhibiting fungal stain although the protective effect was lost upon prolonged exposure. More detailed evaluations...
