Saprophytic ability a colonization success of different woody materials and b increase in Δ14C in mycelium (mean ± SE) of P. croceum that assimilated C from the introduced wood (IM = initial mycelium of P. croceum, M = 4-month mycelium of P. croceum, MW = 4-month mycelium of P. croceum growing near inner sapwood, and W = inner sapwood). Δ14C values of agar media are provided in Table S1. Different letters indicated significant differences of Δ14C (‰) among mycelial types according to one-way ANOVA with post hoc Tukey’s HSD test at p < 0.05 (n = 3). Differences of Δ14C (‰) between mycelium and wood were analyzed using a t-test at p < 0.05 (n = 3). ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01.
