Susceptibility of Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia Nutt.) to Phytophthora lateralis

Creator:: Murray, Marion S.
Abstract:: In 1991 Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia Nutt.) was reported as a new host for Phytophthora lateralis Tucker and Milbrath which is an aggressive root rot pathogen thought previously to be specific to Port-Orford-cedar. This study was designed to compare the pathogenicity of P. lateralis on the two hosts, and to...

Susceptibility of golden chinquapin (Chrysolepis chrysophylla) to Phytophthora cambivora

Creator:: Saavedra, Angel Luis
Abstract:: In early 2000, unusual mortality of a native North American tree, golden chinquapin, was reported by the USDA-Forest Service. Dying trees exhibited girdling cankers in the inner bark of the lower bole, branch flagging and defoliation. Isolations from necrotic tissues and soil associated with diseased or killed trees yielded Phytophthora...

Phytosanitation of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) logs to mitigate the risk of artificially disseminating Phytophthora ramorum within the global trade of timber

Creator:: Hulbert, Joseph M.
Abstract:: Phytophthora ramorum is a plant pathogen that was accidentally introduced to the United States. This invasive microorganism has killed over a million trees in California and Oregon, and continues to spread to new areas. Diseased areas have been nationally quarantined to prevent further spread and more than ninety countries include...

Factors affecting inter-tree root contact and the transmission of Phellinus weirii in young-growth Douglas-fir

Creator:: Reynolds, Keith M.
Abstract:: Groups of second-growth Douglas-fir (Mirb.) Franco were excavated in plots of two to six trees on two sites in the vicinity of Cowichan Lake, Vancouver Is., British Columbia. Eleven excavation plots provided 36 trees which could be studied in pairs (a total of 50 pairs) in order to ascertain the...
