Heat disinfestation of decay fungi found in post-mountain pine beetle wood / [by] Adnan Uzunovic, Lily Khadempour and Karen Leung; [issued by] Pacific Forestry Centre. : Fo144-7/2010E-PDF

In early stages of mountain pine beetle attack, blue-stain fungi associated with the beetle are the predominant microorganisms in the trees. As post-beetle standing trees age, a succession of other fungi occurs, including both sap- and heart-rot fungi, which may flourish in red- and grey- attack stages. In this study, 22 isolates from later stages of beetle-attacked wood were assembled, representing eight fungus species, to test the effectiveness of heat treatment to eradicate fungi present in wood, and whether slow drying/desiccation increased heat tolerance of selected isolates.
