Tree mortality agents in pristine Norway spruce forests in northern Fennoscandia
We examined tree mortality agents in pristine old Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) forests in northern Finland and northwestern Russia. The data was collected on nine 40 mâ â400 m transects.

Non-destructive evaluation of moisture content in wood using ground-penetrating radar [PDF]
This paper presents the results of a series of laboratory measurements, carried out to study how the ground-penetrating radar (GPR) signal is affected by moisture variation in wood material.

Degradation of the fluoroquinolone enrofloxacin by wood-rotting fungi [PDF]
The veterinary fluoroquinolone enrofloxacin was degraded in vitro by four species of wood-rotting fungi growing on wetted wheat straw containing carbonyl-14C-labeled drug. A maximum 14CO2 production of 17% per week was observed with the brown rot fungus Gloeophyllum striatum, resulting in up to 53% after 8 weeks.

Multi-gene phylogenetic analyses revealed two novel species and one new record of Trichobotrys (Pleosporales, Dictyosporiaceae) from China [PDF]
The rotting wood in freshwater is a unique eco-environment favoring various fungi. During our investigation of freshwater fungi on decaying wood, three hyphomycetes were collected from Jiangxi and Guangxi Provinces, China.

Bioremediation by Wood-Rotting fungi (III)
Microbial degradation of 2, 4, 8-trichlorodibenzofuran (2, 4, 8-TCDF) and dibenzofuran by three fungi (563, V1, V2) isolated by a screening method from natural world and by two wood-rotting fungi (Phanerochaete chrysosporium and Coriolus versicolor) were conducted. The five fungi degraded from 1.9% to 75.9% of 2, 4, 8-TCDF.
