There are many methods to identify and recognize the molecular and behavioural differences between organisms. One of the methods for the detection and identification of unknown organisms as well as intermolecular and intramolecular structural differences is MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Therefore, differentiation of  Fomes fomentarius  decay capabilities on the chemical properties of the wood cell wall of the tree species  Quercus castaneifolia ,  Juglans regia , and  Carpinus betulus  were used to determine and characterize the destructive behaviour of  F. fomentarius  decay by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The results showed that the fungus had more significant destructive behaviour on  J. regia  than the other species. For this evidence, completely removal of xylan hemicellulose fragment +Na+ at peak 1227 Da and severe digestion of fragment of glucomannan hemicellulose at peak 1477–1480 Da that it seems that signs of soft-rot patterns were obtained from the decayed sample of  J. regia , while these were incremental and unchanged for  C. betulus  and  Q. castaneifolia , respectively. However,  C. betulus  had different peaks of atomic mass than  J. regia  and  Q. castaneifolia  wood, respectively. These results showed that this technique could be useful for separating and identifying unknown compounds of the wood cell wall attacked by fungi relying on their biological behaviour.
