Abstract

AbstractThis is the final report on a study that examined the occurrence of three types of microorganisms (fungi, bacteria, and yeasts) on dead-stacked green yellow-poplar lumber in spring and summer of 2000. This paper reports on the abundance, identities, and diversity of yeasts isolated during the first 60 days of storage of the lumber immediately after sawing in each season. Yeasts made up 16% of the total microbial isolates (logncfu g−1) in the entire study. The predominant yeast isolate wasTrichosporon cutaneum, which accounted for 42% of all the yeasts identified. A great variety of yeast species belonging to the genusCandidawere present and includedC. steatolytica,C. sphaerica,C. humicola,C. incommunis,C. montana, andC. kefyr.
