Abstract: Fungal colonization in living tree usually associated with wounds. Rapid growth of mycelium in the open wound may cause the process of decay occurred. The isolation and characterization of fungus associated with artificial stem wound of Fragraea fragrans were conducted in heath vegetation of Rantau Abang, Terengganu from October 2006 to February 2007. A total of 17 individuals fungus from six genera were recorded and isolated. Six species of fungi were isolated from wound that exposed stem inner bark and five species of fungi were isolated from wound of exposed sapwood. The most frequently isolated genus was Trichophyton with seven individuals fungus, ( 42% of total isolated fungus). Although there were several common fungi isolated from both wound depth, there was indication that succession pattern of fungus was different. Possible factors that determined fungus population on wound over time are discussed.
