COST ACTION E22: Environmental optimisation of wood protection<br />

Dr. Andreas Rapp<br />

• Durability of wood under typical conditions in EHC 3<br />

• Durability of different Larix sp. in ground<br />

• Biological variation within test-sites<br />

• Heat treatment e.g. oil-heat treatment<br />

• Monitoring of modified wood in service<br />

• Field performance of melamin resins<br />

• Hydrophobation of wood in EHC 3 using vegetable oils<br />

Research themes<br />

• Bioprotection of logs and lumber<br />

• Investigation and monitoring of sapstain fungi<br />

• Supervision of biocontrol field trials using Cartapip (colourless mutant of Ophiostoma<br />

piliferum) as antisapstain agent<br />

Aim: To develop monitoring strategies for Cartapip<br />

→ monitoring with classical cultivation techniques<br />

→ design of molecular markers targeting the beta-tubulin gene and their<br />

application on wood<br />

• Investigation of the genetic relatedness of Cartapip and Ophiostoma piliferum<br />

wild type strains to facilitate the registration of Cartapip as biocontrol agent<br />

→ Investigation of genetic variation of the ribosomal region, including ITS1and<br />

ITS2-region and the β-tubulin gene<br />

• Investigation of the natural sapstain fungi community in Germany<br />
