Sacc. and Pycnoporus coccineus (Fr.) Bond. and Sing., syn. Coriolus sangutneus (L. ex Fr.) G. H. Cunn.; and against two brown-rot fungi, Lenzites trabea Pers. ex Fr. and Coniophora olivacea (Fr.) Karst. The species most resistant to decay were Palaquium hornei, Intsia bijuga, Fagraea gracilipes, Syzygium spp. complex, and Dacrydium elatum. Most of the species tested were highly susceptible to decay. There was a tendency, both among species and with in species, for the denser and less water-absorbent wood to be more resistant to decay. Also, the outer heartwood was, in general, more resistant to decay than inner heartwood.Item Reversal of Ethionine Inhibition by Methionine during Slime Mold Development(University of Hawai'i Press, 1967-10) Hohl, Hans R.; Hamamoto, Susan T.Item Revision of the Genus Pandanus Stickman, Part 25.
