Creator:: James, Robert L., United States. Forest Health Protection, and United States. Forest Service. Northern Region
Abstract:: Investigations were conducted from 1998- 2000 at the Potlatch Corporation's Cherrylane Seed Orchard near Lewiston, Idaho to evaluate presence and extent of potentially pathogenic fungi on roots of diseased stock and within the soil in current and proposed plantation sites. The most common group of pathogens encountered was Fusarium spp.;...

Creator:: James, Robert L., Trent, Andy, United States. Forest Health Protection, and United States. Forest Service. Northern Region
Abstract:: Fungal pathogens tend to accumulate within styroblock containers, which are reused to produce successive crops of container-grown seedlings. Most nurseries treat reused containers by immersing them in hot water for varying time periods. The efficacy of radio frequency waves (RFs) to reduce levels of selected groups of fungi within styroblock...

Creator:: James, Robert L., United States. Forest Health Protection, and United States. Forest Service. Northern Region
Abstract:: Preplant soil treatments were implemented to determine effects on populations of potentiallypathogenic Fusarium and potentially disease-suppressive Trichoderma spp. as well as root colonization by these and other selected fungi on healthy-appearing, bare root 2-0 western white pine seedlings at the USDA Forest Service Nursery, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. Soil treatments included...

Creator:: James, Robert L., United States. Forest Health Protection, and United States. Forest Service. Northern Region
Abstract:: A preliminary evaluation of the biological control formulation of Trichoderma harzianum marketed as BioTrek® was conducted on bareroot Douglasfir and western white pine seedlings at the USDA Forest Service Nursery, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. The biocontrol material was applied topically on seed shortly after sowing and comparisons made between treated and...

Creator:: Hagle, Susan K., United States. Forest Service. Northern Region, and United States. Forest Health Protection
Abstract:: Tree damage following dust abatement/road stabilization treatment was evaluated on 12.5 miles of the Selway River Road, Nez Perce National Forest. Calcium chloride was applied in June of 2000, mostly at a rate of 51b/yd2 (18,600 lb./acre) or 6.9 lb/yd 2 (25,700 lb/acre). 1,189 trees up to 30 feet from...

Creator:: James, Robert L., United States. Forest Health Protection, and United States. Forest Service. Northern Region
Abstract:: Healthy-appearing 1-0 ponderosa and lodgepole pine seedlings were assayed for root infection and colonization by potentially-pathogenic fungi following pre-sowing soil treatments which included methyl bromide/chloropicrin (MBC) fumigation, fallowing with or/without periodic cultivation, and amending soil with mushroom composts or undecomposed sawdust. Levels of root colonization by Fusarium spp. on both...

Creator:: Kegley, Sandy, United States. Forest Health Protection, and United States. Forest Service. Northern Region
Abstract:: The unusually large amount of ice, snow, and wind-damaged trees that occurred during the winter of 1996-97 provided prime habitat for populations of the Douglas-fir beetle (DFB) (Dendroctonus pseudotsugae) to build to epidemic numbers. Beetles emerged during the spring and summer of 1998, attacking hundreds of thousands of standing Douglas-fir...
