Fungi growing on wood substrates decompose wood by their ferments, using cell substances in their nutrition. Depending on the complex of ferments in the fungus, wood constituents decompose unequally, leading to anatomic and chemical changes in wood. Poplar wood exposed to the action of the fungus Pleurotus ostreatus for a year changed its chemical composition. The study results show a relative increase in cellulose content, and a decrease in the contents of lignin, the extractives and ash.
