The paper summarizes results of an experimental study on succession relations among several wood-destroying fungi of different physiological and ecological types. Spruce and beech wood samples were subjected to successive fungal colonization, and decomposition was assessed by loss of dry matter. Results showed that wood availability for colonization is influenced not only by the type and duration of preceding decay but also by the wood species itself.
