Natural durability of Cedrus atlantica wood related to the bioactivity of its essential oil against wood decaying fungi

The Atlas cedar, Cedrus atlantica is a resinous species of Pinaceae originated from North Africa and well known for its noble timber. This work was conducted to assess the natural durability of its wood, to study the chemical composition of essential oil extracted from its sawdust wood and to test t...
