The fungus that causes dry rot in North America is called Meruliporia incrassata (also sometimes called Poria incrassata). This pore fungus feeds on the cells of the wood that give it strength and stability.
Other causes of decay, especially in wood that contains a high moisture content, include the soft rot fungi and bacteria. Soft rot fungi, usually species of Ascomycetes and Fungi Imperfecti (e.g., Alternaria, Bisporomyces [Chloridium], Diplodia, and Paecilomyces) digest both lignin and cellulose.ome species of decay fungi cause root and butt rot in one species of tree and trunk rot in another species. A few fungi cause both top rot and root or butt rot in the same tree species.
