Summary:Eighty-four species of wood from Aceh, Jambi, Riau, Sulawesi, Moluccas, Kalimantan and Java, which cover 36 families and 67 genera, were evaluated for their resistance against brown rot (Dacryopinax spathularia) and white rot (Pycnoporus sanguineus and Schizophyllum commune) attacks using Kolle-flask method (DIN 52176-modified standard). Results showed that the attack of white rot fungi were generally more severe than that of brown rot fungi. It was found that 30 wood species were categorised as resistant (class II), 20 species as moderately resistant (class III), 32 species as non-resistant (class IV) and 2 species as perishable (class V). Sebanyak 84 spesies kayu yang tergolong dalam 36 famili dan 67 genus dan berasal dari Aceh, Jambi, Riau, Sulawesi, Kepulauan Maluku, Kalimantan and Jawa dinilai dari segi ketahanan menentang serangan reput perang (Dacryopinax spathularia) dan reput putih (Pycnoporus sanguineus serta Schizophyllum commune). Kaedah yang digunakan ialah kaedah kelalang Kolle (standard DIN 52176 yang diubah suai). Pada umumnya keputusan menunjukkan bahawa serangan kulat reput putih lebih teruk berbanding dengan kulat reput perang. Sebanyak 30 spesies kayu dikategorikan sebagai tahan (kelas II), 20 sebagai sederhana (kelas III), 32 sebagai tidak tahan (kelas IV) dan dua sebagai mudah rosak (kelas V).
