https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.229
This study evaluated the physical and mechanical properties of families 3, 11, and 12 from a 4-year-old second-generation (F-2) Acacia auriculiformis progeny trial to assess potential genetic improvements in wood quality and possible end uses. A total of 9 selected trees from 3 families were used to investigate growth characteristics, wood properties and their internal relationships. The results showed significant differences among the families for free-branched height, moisture content at green condition (MCg), basic density (BD), modulus of e...

https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.243
This research aimed to assess the presence and impact of stem canker disease on hybrid Eucalyptus pellita × Eucalyptus urophylla trees, and evaluate internal xylem quality using non-destructive testing (NDT). In this context, 536 individual trees were observed before measuring stem diameters. A t-test was applied to compare diameters between the two groups, while the severity of stem canker symptoms was recorded using a categorical scoring system. Stress wave velocity and relative velocity decrease were also measured to assess the internal i...

J. Korean Wood Sci. Technol. 2026;54(3):256-274.
https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.256
Light-colored wood commonly used as a raw material for furniture is often subject to quality deterioration due to the attack of staining fungi. Control methods that may be applied include the use of boron compounds and heat treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the characteristics of staining fungi attack and evaluate the effectiveness of combined boric acid equivalent (BAE) and heat treatments in reducing the intensity of fungi attack. Preservation was applied to pine and rubber woods using a 5% BAE solution, combined with heating ...

Rubberwood as a Potential Bait Matrix for Multigenera Subterranean Termites in Tropical Regions
Hendra Kurniawan MAURY , Amadeus Cleaver CHANDRA , Intan AHMAD , Ramadhani Eka PUTRA , Rudi DUNGANI
J. Korean Wood Sci. Technol. 2026;54(3):275-291.
https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.275
Baiting is considered the most technically and economically effective method for monitoring and controlling termite populations. However, previous studies show the variation of the termite responses to the bait matrix, which reduces the effectiveness and increases the cost complexity of the control. These conditions drive the development of a bait matrix effective across various termite genera. In this study, we evaluated the potential of rubberwood (Hevea brasiliensis) as a bait matrix for multigenera subterranean termites. The effectiveness o...

Influence of Extractive Compounds from Selected Tropical Woods on the Growth Performance of Edible Mushroom Mycelia
Denny IRAWATI , Johanes Pramana Gentur SUTAPA , Ganis LUKMANDARU , MASENDRA , Rizky ARISANDI , Almaratush Shoolichah RIDLO
J. Korean Wood Sci. Technol. 2026;54(3):292-307.
https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.292
The successful growth of fungal mycelia on sawdust-based media largely depends on the physicochemical characteristics of the wood, particularly its lignocellulosic composition and secondary metabolites. Wood species with high extractive contents are generally less favorable for fungal media. In this study, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis was used to identify the compounds present in hot-water- and ethanol–toluene-soluble extracts of mango (Mangifera indica), mahogany (Swietenia mahagoni), black rosewood (Dalbergia latifolia Ro...

Performance of the Potanje Beam–Column Connection System in the Souraja Traditional House of Central Sulawesi
Muhammad Yusuf AMIR , Ali AWALUDIN , Iman SATYARNO , Muh Fauzie SISWANTO
J. Korean Wood Sci. Technol. 2026;54(3):308-324.
https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.308
A Potanje joint is a full-penetration mortise–tenon connection equipped with a wedge, providing friction-based energy dissipation similar to that of the Japanese P-type joint, which uses a single wedge without dowels. In the Potanje configuration, the dowels primarily restrain beam sliding and improve deformation control under cyclic loading. This study aimed to evaluate the seismic performance of the Potanje beam–column connection system used in traditional Souraja houses in Palu City, Indonesia. To further enhance cyclic performance, two ...

Soul of Wood: A Systematic Review on Integrating Aesthetic Bio-Aesthetics and Engineering Functionality (2003–2025)
Deni SETIAWAN , Syakir SYAKIR , Ni Kadek Aris RAHMADANI , Arif HIDAYAT
J. Korean Wood Sci. Technol. 2026;54(3):325-346.
https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.325
The materiality of wood is often confined to a rigid dichotomy between the technical parameters of engineering and the aesthetic value of the arts. Recent scholarship has shown more interest in integrating these domains; however, considerable gaps remain, particularly in the limited exploration of emotional sustainability within contemporary sustainability discourse. In this systematic literature review (SLR), we aimed to summarize the evolving understanding of wood, from a purely structural material to a medium of cultural communication. We al...

https://doi.org/10.5658/WOOD.2026.54.3.347
This study provides a comprehensive analysis of a modern najeon (mother-of-pearl) lacquered cabinet featuring a phoenix motif (730 × 355 × 590 mm), clarifying its structural characteristics, material composition, and production chronology. X-ray radiography showed that the internal framework is composed of standardized 15-mm planks of imported lauan (Shorea spp.) with different structural designs. While the door panels are made of single planks, the front sections of the top and side panels use a partial layering technique, achieving thickne...
