    All you can do is replace the area or the whole plywood sheet. If you just replace the rotten spot, make sure you cut it out with a wide margin of good wood so that the rot doesn't travel back into the replaced section.

    There is some stuff that is a 2 part epoxy mixture. I saw it used on This Old House, go to Home Depot and ask. It depends on where the damage is located. Is it load bearing, etc.?
