The intensity of the occurrence of Bjerkanderaadusta on 8‐year‐old Quercus rubra and Q. rubur , which had numerous cracks in the bark of the stems caused by May frosts in 1977 in two block test areas, is described. The amount of decay in sapwood of both oak species and the biotic effect of B. adusta on some fungi taking part in colonization of oak sapwood were investigated in the laboratory and the test checking on the possibility of the development of this fungus in soil was carried out. The conditions which caused a mass occurrence of this fungus are also discussed.
