TitleMolecular analysis of intraspecific variation between building and `wild’ isolates of Serpula lacrymans and their relatedness to S. himantioides
TypePaper
SourceMycol. Res. Vol 105 (4): 447-452.
Review (by Malcolm Storey)Dry Rot from buildings is genetically very similar to "wild" S. lacrymans from its presumed source in Himalayan woodland (despite previous reports of different growth and decay rates), and is distinct from S. himatioides.
