[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

As the title, so basicaly the challenge is, find a tree that is NOT diffuse porous but is infected with Kretzschmaria duesta, as i am now VERY curious about the connection.

[Stephen Blair]

whats diffuse porous tony?

[Tony Croft aka hamadryad]

where all the vessels are of the same size and no really discernable rings present, think of hornbeam and birch against oak, whos rings are distinct and the vessels are enlarged in the early wood layed earlyspring summer then smaller through the year.

i never even Knew i had noticed that, i thought it was just a diferent amount of growth in diferent years, cool. night night guys

oak was not expected I have to say.

[David Humphries]

Could be that Kretzsch may be sapro on pretty much anything but just leaves it's nastyness to the poor diffuse fellows.

 

 

You raise an interesting point Tony.

 

Will try and make a mental note around the interaction.
