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.

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.

Dead wood characteristics influencing macrofungi species abundance and diversity in Caspian natural beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) forests

open access: yesForest Systems, 2015
Aim of study: This study aimed to examine the dead wood inhabiting macrofungi communities occurring on dead beech and hornbeam trees in Caspian forests. Area of study: The Kheiroud forest in the north of Iran.

Bacteria in decomposing wood and their interactions with wood-decay fungi [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2016
The fungal community within dead wood has received considerable study, but far less attention has been paid to bacteria in the same habitat. Bacteria have long been known to inhabit decomposing wood, but much remains underexplored about their identity and ecology. Bacteria within the dead wood environment must interact with wood-decay fungi, but again,

Wood-water relationships and their role for wood susceptibility to fungal decay [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2020
AbstractWood in service is sequestering carbon, but it is principally prone to deterioration where different fungi metabolize wood, and carbon dioxide is released back to the atmosphere. A key prerequisite for fungal degradation of wood is the presence of moisture.

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.

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.

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 ...

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.
