Investigations on the influence of wood-inhabiting bacteria on the pH-value in trees |
|
| Authors: | O Schmidt |
| Abstract: | Regardless of their isolation origin, bacteria from wetwood of fir and poplar, from polluted beech and spruce trees, and from discoloured timber of Ilomba, acidified aerobically glucose-rich substrates by organic acid production and increased the pH of protein media by ammonia. The pH-changes occurred in laboratory nutrient media and also in the physiologically characterized capillary liquids and wood flours of fir, poplar and spruce. |
