Bacteriological Characteristics of Contemporary Wood During Soil Deposition in Anoxia Conditions at the Biskupin Archaeological Site (Poland) - Petrifilms™ as an Alternative for Conventional Bacteriological Media

The paper presents results of quantitative and qualitative analyses of the composition of saprophytic and pathogenic microflora colonising contemporary wood of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and oak (Quercus sp.), deposited for eight years in peat soil, under anoxia conditions at two measuring st...
