Biological aspects of the biopulping fungus Ceriporiopsis subvermispora
(2002)The specific activity of four isolates of C. subvermispora media was found to be quite variable. Growth on PDA was the fastest compared to other common nutrient media. Cardinal temperatures for growth were optimum at ... -
Cytological studies of Inonotus tomentosus
(1988)Cytological studies revealed irregularities in the nuclear life cycle of Inonotus tomentosus. The mycelia was multinucleate and the nuclei were found in groups of two to six. By the time the nuclei reached the subhymenium ... -
Detection and assessment of Armillaria in young conifer plantations of northwestern Ontario and northeastern China
(1991)Methods for detecting and evaluating Armillaria in plantations were compared in a series of studies. The purposes of the studies were to standardize the Armillaria trapping technique, and to determine if it could be used ... -
Educating resource technicians to the new concept of ecological classification systems
(2001)The topics o f Ecosystem Management (EM) and Ecological Classification Systems (ECS) are appearing more frequently in forest management literature. These systems facilitate our understanding, not only o f forests from a ... -
Effects of Laccaria proxima and fibrous pulp wastes on the growth of container-grown conifers
(1990)Nine conifer species, Japanese larch {Larix kaempferi), white spruce (Picea glauca) , black spruce (P. mariana), red spruce (P. rubens), jack pine (Pinus banksiana), mugo pine (P. mugo), red pine (P. resinosa),Japanese ... -
Natural decay resistance of some Ghanaian timbers and wood decay hazard potential for Ghana
(1996)The natural decay resistance of 30 Ghanaian wood species, the decay capacity of four wood decay fungi, the effect of test method on fungal decay ability, and the wood decay hazard potential in Ghana were determined. Five ... -
Population structure, somatic incompatibility, and sporocarp overwintering in Chondrostereum purpureum
(2000)An investigation was conducted o f the population structure, the somatic incompatibility reaction, and sporocarp overwintering in Chondrostereum purpureum (Pers.:Fr.) Pouzar, a proposed mycoherbicide of undesirable ... -
Preliminary study of North American schizopora species
(2007)Macro- and micro-morphological characteristics were examined among specimens of 'Schizopora' paradoxa, 'Schizopora flavipora', and 'Schizopora apacheriensis' collected from temperate and tropical North America. Characteristics ... -
Shigometer and electrical resistance studies of paper birch
(1990)The Shigometer was evaluated as an instrument for detecting red heart of paper birch. The Shigometer accurately detected the presence of red heart at a 50% decrease from the maximum reading rule but sometimes failed to ... -
Studies on the fungus Flammulina velutipes
(1987)Local ligninocellulosic waste materials were examined as substrates for growing Flammulina velutipes mushrooms. Mushroom production was favoured by substrate moisture content in the range of 125-150%, (substrate supplementation ... -
Study of Chondrostereum purpureum and its role in the decline of white birch in Thunder Bay
(1990)Various aspects of the biology of Chondrostereum purpureum (Pers.:Fr.) Pouz. and its role in dieback and decline of white birch (Betula papyrifera Marsh.) were studied. (1) Sixty-nine trees which exhibited symptoms ...
