Abstract

AbstractThe electrical resistance at various points within pruning wounds was measured, over periods of up to two years, using a pulsed electric current resistance meter (Shigometer). Wood with stain and decay generally had a lower electrical resistance than healthy wood. Mathematical and visual models were constructed from measurements of electrical resistance and examination of dissected wounds. These models were used to relate the extent of stain and/or decay with the diameter of the wound, length of the wound stub, time after pruning and with wound treatment.
