The dark side of fungal competition and resource capture in wood: Zone line spalting from science to application

open access: yesMaterials and Design, 2021
On wood surfaces and in planar section, zones lines appear as narrow and sharply delineated dark lines within wood visibly altered (“spalted”) by the decay process. In intact wood, zone lines define an irregular volume of decaying wood.
