The bark and heartwood of Acacia auriculiformis A. Cunn. are known for toxicity against different organisms.
The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of leaves and saw dust extract of A. auriculiformis against the wood
decay fungi like Trametes versicolor and Oligoporus placenta using bioassay method. The experiment was conducted
during 2017-18 at College of Forestry, Sirsi (Karnataka) India. Saw dust extract at 0.5% concentration level showed
46.80% and 29.40% inhibition against T. versicolor and O. placenta, respectively. T. versicolor and O. placenta was
inhibited by 15.32% and 47.80%, respectively, at 1% concentration of saw dust. The inhibition per cent of saw dust
extract against wood decay fungi was higher in comparison to leaf extract. The results indicated that A. auriculiformis
saw dust extract can be used further for possible wood preservation in field conditions.
