This assay can identify decay agents in standing trees as well as from downed
trees. It will also detect multiple decay fungi in individual trees. Now you can
assess the situation before trouble strikes.
This approach will become the gold standard for detecting wood rot fungi and is
suitable for arborists, tree care professionals, property owners, and
municipalities.
