Wood Decay Fungi in Landscape Trees
Pest Notes, Publication 74109 Revised August 2019 Integrated Pest Management for Home Gardeners and Landscape Professionals Wood Decay Fungi in Landscape Trees everal fungal diseases, sometimes called heart rots, Ssap rots, or canker rots, decay wood in tree trunks Figure 1. White rot of oak. and limbs (Figures 1 and 2). Under conditions favor- ing growth of specific rot fungi, extensive portions of the wood of living trees can decay in a relatively short time (i.e., months to years). Decay fungi reduce wood strength and may kill storage and conductive tissues in the sapwood. While most species of woody plants are subject to trunk and limb decay, older and weaker trees are most susceptible. DAMAGE Decay fungi destroy cell wall components; including cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, that make up the woody portion of a tree. Depending on the organism, decay fungi can destroy the living (sapwood) or the central core (heartwood) part of the tree. Decay isn’t always visible on the outside of the tree, except where the bark Figure 2. Heart brown rot in a conifer trunk. has been cut or injured, when a cavity is present, or when rot fungi produce reproductive structures. Wood decay can make trees hazardous, of wood weight can result in 70 to 90% as infected trunks and limbs become loss in wood strength. Many branches unable to support their own weight and that fall from trees appear sound, but fall, especially when stressed by wind, upon analysis, they were colonized by Authors: heavy rain, or other conditions.

Diseases of Trees in the Great Plains
39. Ganoderma Root Rot or White Mottled Rot James T. Blodgett Ganoderma root rot, also called white mottled rot, is caused by the fungus Ganoderma applanatum. This fungus is found in all 50 states and occurs throughout North America and Europe. It is a pathogen and a common wood-decaying fungus of roots and lower stems (butts) of many deciduous and some coniferous trees species. Ganoderma-caused root rot has been reported in live trees, such as apple (Malus spp.), aspen (Populus spp.), basswood (Tilia spp.), beech (Fagus spp.), birch (Betula spp.), cherry (Prunus spp.), citrus (Citrus spp.), cottonwood (Populus spp.), elm (Ulmus spp.), hemlock (Tsuga spp.), hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana), horsechestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum), black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) and honeylocust (Gleditsia triacanthos), maple (Acer spp.), mul- berry (Morus spp.), oak (Quercus spp.), spruce (Picea spp.), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), tulip tree (Liriodendron tulipifera), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and willow (Salix spp.). G. applanatum is commonly known as the artist’s conk. The name comes from the use of its fruiting bodies as a drawing medium by artists (fig. 39-1). When the fresh lower surface is rubbed or scratched, it immediately changes Figure 39-1—Drawing on the lower from white to dark brown, producing shading or surface of Ganoderma applanatum conk visible lines. When the conk is dried, drawings (James J. Worrall, U.S. Forest Service). become permanent. Hosts and Distribution In the Great Plains, G. applanatum occurs predominantly in aspen, cottonwoods, and other Populus species. This fungal pathogen is irregularly distributed across the Great Plains, but its distribution is not well documented in many areas.

Mycosphere 8(8), 1108–1123, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/8/8/11 Abstract Ganoderma is a well-known genus of medicinal mushrooms that belongs to the order Polyporales. Many members of this genus are extensively used in traditional Asian medicines. Herein we report a new strain of Ganoderma australe collected in Thailand and identified using macro- and micro-morphological characteristics as well as phylogenetic analysis. The optimal conditions for mycelia growth were 25–30 ºC at pH 7–8, while sorghum and barley were found to be the best grain media for spawn production.

MUSHROOMS of the OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled By
MUSHROOMS OF THE OTTAWA NATIONAL FOREST Compiled by Dana L. Richter, School of Forest Resources and Environmental Science, Michigan Technological University, Houghton, MI for Ottawa National Forest, Ironwood, MI March, 2011 Introduction There are many thousands of fungi in the Ottawa National Forest filling every possible niche imaginable. A remarkable feature of the fungi is that they are ubiquitous! The mushroom is the large spore-producing structure made by certain fungi. Only a relatively small number of all the fungi in the Ottawa forest ecosystem make mushrooms. Some are distinctive and easily identifiable, while others are cryptic and require microscopic and chemical analyses to accurately name. This is a list of some of the most common and obvious mushrooms that can be found in the Ottawa National Forest, including a few that are uncommon or relatively rare. The mushrooms considered here are within the phyla Ascomycetes – the morel and cup fungi, and Basidiomycetes – the toadstool and shelf-like fungi. There are perhaps 2000 to 3000 mushrooms in the Ottawa, and this is simply a guess, since many species have yet to be discovered or named. This number is based on lists of fungi compiled in areas such as the Huron Mountains of northern Michigan (Richter 2008) and in the state of Wisconsin (Parker 2006). The list contains 227 species from several authoritative sources and from the author’s experience teaching, studying and collecting mushrooms in the northern Great Lakes States for the past thirty years. Although comments on edibility of certain species are given, the author neither endorses nor encourages the eating of wild mushrooms except with extreme caution and with the awareness that some mushrooms may cause life-threatening illness or even death.

Microdistribution and Retention of Chloropicrin in Wood
AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Barry Scott Goodell for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Forest Products presented on April 8, 1983 Title: Microdistribution and Retention of Chloropicrinin Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco]Heartwood Abstract approved: Redacted for Privacy Le-r-44 Robert L. Krahmer Quantitative and qualitative informationon the retention of chlorinated residues in chloropicrintreated wood is lacking. Retention of chloropicrin and itschemical breakdown products in wood, and the effects of chloropicrintreatment of wood on invading decay fungi are explored in this thesis. Chlorinated residues in amountsup to 1.5% (w/w, as determined by neutron activation analysis) were present in Douglas-firwood exposed to chloropicrin vapors for 240 days. These residues could not be totally removed by aeration,acetoneextraction, heating, or high vacuum treatment. Lesser amounts of chlorinated residueswere detected in wood exposed to chloropicrin forshorter periods of time or treated with smaller quantities of the chemical. Analysis of vaporsdesorbed from chlorpicrin-treated woodsuggests that chemically unaltered chloropicrin can be retained bywood up to 4 years after treatment. Decreased retention of chlorinated residues intreated wood with brown rot decay suggests thathydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces are responsible, at least in part, for this retention. Wood does not swell when treated with chloropicrin.Although a monomolecular layer of chloropicrin may hydrogen bond to wood at some sites, lack of swelling indicates that chloropicrin molecules are retained by forces weaker than the hydrogen bonds which hold the lignocellulose matrix of wood together. Covalent linkages may also form between chloropicrin, or chlori- nated breakdown products of chloropicrin, and wood.Energy dispersive X-ray analysis showed that chloropicrin residues were present in greater concentrations in areas of the wood rich in lignin or extrac- tives.

This investigation was conducted in seven different areas of tropical moist deciduous forest region of Bangladesh namely Dhaka, Gazipur, Bogra, Rajshahi, Pabna, Jaipurhat and Dinajpur. Mushroom flora associated with these forest regions were collected, photographed and preserved. A total of fifty samples were collected and identified to fourteen genera and twenty four species.

ID: Decayed roots and butts. Mushrooms, conks, or other fungal structures on the root collar or roots (nonpathogenic mushrooms and conks can also be found near tree bases). Uprooted trees have few remaining roots (root ball, root wad). The direction of tree fall may be inconsistent rather than with the direction of prevailing wind. Remarks: The known root and butt diseases in Alaska are caused by internal wood decay (rot) fungi that may overlap with stem decay fungi. Butt rot fungi decay the heartwood at the base of the stem. Trees can live with butt rot for years or decades. Tree mortality usually occurs due to uprooting or snapping associated with the loss of structural integrity. 2 Armillaria species Armillaria Root Rot mycelial fans 3 rhizomorphs Hosts: All tree species in Alaska.
