Pourridié laineux [...]. Sous l'écorce on trouve des éventails blancs en forme de doigts de gants qui sont des rhizomorphes ramifiés et à l'extérieur une couche de mycélium blanc grisâtre. [...] Les arbres présentent différents degrés de décoloration, une croissance lente et peuvent connaître le dépérissement après une période de sécheresse ou un lent déclin au fil des années. Les feuilles restent attachées à la plante qui meurt rapidement. Les plantes en déclin présentent un déssèchement et des feuilles rabougries sur les rameaux de la base. Un suintement gommeux, noir, est observé à l'extrémité de la racine. 2, record 1, French, - pourridi%C3%A9%20laineux
