不同樹木區隔化能力

Ability to compartmentalize decay differs among trees

Trees have genetic capacity to build chemical boundaries around infection. Some trees have a high capacity to build these systems and others do not. Trees that are not able to build effective boundaries decay rapidly following injury. Trees that can build effect barriers do not decay as readily. The list below indicates relative ability to retard decay. Individuals within the genera or species may be more or less susceptible than indicated.
