Five fungal species representing the three major spalting categories were inoculated onto wood of five different urban tree species with low to moderate economic value. Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) was also inoculated to serve as a control. Test samples were evaluated both internally and externally for spalting. The tested fungi had significant preferences for different wood species, and the preferences appeared to be related to sucrose availability. Specifically, zone line producing fungi preferred American elm (Ulmus americana), while Arthrographis cuboidea (pink stain) preferred tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima). Wood species preference was also significant by decay class, with decay fungi preferring American elm, silver maple (Acer saccharinium), and horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum). Staining fungi showed a preference for tree-of-heaven, while both decay classes readily colonized sugar maple and Norway maple (Acer platanoides).
► Wood with higher extractive contents may stimulate pigment production in ascomycete fungi.
► Woods with sucrose levels above 0.01% are favored by a broader range of pigment-producing fungi.
► A. elm, horse chestnut, and silver maple were preferred by basidiomycetes.
