Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Toxicity to Fungi of Various Oils and Salts, Particularly Those Used in Wood Preservation
It is unfortunate that the work of different authors can not, in many instances, be directly compared, on account of differences in the method employed. However, much of value can be deduced from the few available examples.
In his valuable work, Clark (3) calls clearly to the attention the variations among different species Of molds. Certain toxic agents are shown to present great differences in this respect and others only slight ones. Even the stage Of development of a single organism is Of great importance, the conidia of the five species used proving more sensitive than the mycelium, so that the inhibition point for spore germination can not safely be considered as the toxic point for the development of mycelium.
