Saproxylic Diptera assemblages in a temperate deciduous forest: implications for community assembly [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Saproxylic insects, those associated directly or indirectly with decaying wood for all or part of their life cycle, compose a large proportion of forest organisms.

Experimental evaluation of the effect of different design conditions on the risk of decay in solid wood exposed to outdoor climate

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2021
Wood decay have the greatest impact on in-service wood structural elements. In most cases, decay is associated with excessive accumulation of moisture in the wood.

Chemical Composition and Anti-Wood-Decay Fungal Activities of Leaf Essential Oil From Taiwan

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2022
We evaluated the leaf essential oil in whole or fractions of Dysphania ambrosioides with respect to their resistance to wood decay fungal activities in vitro of 4 fungi.

Decay Resistance of Surface Carbonized Wood

open access: yesMaterials, 2022
Surface carbonization, or charring, of wood is a one-sided modification method primarily intended for protection of exterior cladding boards. The heavily degraded surface acts as a barrier layer shielding the interior from environmental stresses, and as such acts as an organic coating.

Wood Discoloration and Decay in Grapevines with Esca Proper and Their Relationship with Foliar Symptoms

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2007
From two Italian vineyards affected with esca proper, vineyard A (Borghi, FC, Emilia-Romagna) and vineyard B (Controguerra, TE, Abruzzo), located in different wine-growing areas and with different cultivars, 165 vines were collected that had shown the ...

Effect of Trichoderma-enriched organic charcoal in the integrated wood protection strategy.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
The gradual elimination of chromium from wood preservative formulations results in higher Cu leaching and increased susceptibility to wood decay fungi. Finding a sustainable strategy in wood protection has become of great interest among researchers.

Decay stages of wood and associated fungal communities characterise diversity–decomposition relationships

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The biodiversity–ecosystem function relationship is a central topic in ecology. Fungi are the dominant decomposers of organic plant material in terrestrial ecosystems and display tremendous species diversity.

The relationship between tree species and wood colonising fungi and fungal interactions influences wood degradation

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Deadwood is one of the main terrestrial carbon (C) pools and its decomposition is fundamental in biogeochemical cycles. As fungi are the main wood degraders, a study was carried out on deadwood-colonising fungal community changes as a function of host ...

Nanostructural Changes Correlated to Decay Resistance of Chemically Modified Wood Fibers

open access: yesFibers, 2022
Reactive chemical modifications have been shown to impart decay resistance to wood. These modifications change hydroxyl availability, water uptake, surface energy, and the nanostructure of wood.
