Microbiology of Wetwood: Importance of Pectin Degradation and Clostridium Species in Living Trees

Wetwood samples from standing trees of eastern cottonwood (Populus deltoides), black poplar (Populus nigra), and American elm (Ulmus americana) contained high numbers of aerobic and anaerobic pectin-degrading bacteria (10(4) to 10(6) cells per g of wood).
