Impacts of Beech Bark Disease and Climate Change on American Beech [PDF]

Forests, 2017
American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) is a dominant component of forest tree cover over a large portion of eastern North America and this deciduous, mast-bearing tree species plays a key role in these forest ecosystems.

Increased levels of harvest may favour sugar maple regeneration over American beech in northern hardwoods

Forest Ecology and Management, 2021
The increasing dominance of American beech regeneration (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) to the expense of sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) challenges the long-term economic viability of forest management in northern hardwoods.

Micropropagation of juvenile and mature american beech

Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture, 1997
The purpose of this study was to micropropagate juvenile and mature American beech (Fagus grandifoliaEhrh.) resistant to beech bark disease. Shoot tips (from juvenile seedlings and root sprouts of mature trees) and buds from branches of mature trees, were cultured and multiplied on aspen culture medium supplemented with 0.89M 6-benzyladenine, 0.27M ...

The First Occurrence of the Beech Scale Insect on American Beech Trees in Ontario

Arboriculture & Urban Forestry, 1985
The beech scale insect, Cryptococcus fagisuga was found on American beech trees, Fagus grandifolia for the first time in Ontario in 1981. The affected trees were located in the Newmarket area north of Toronto.

Assessment of beech scale resistance in full- and half-sibling American beech families

Canadian Journal of Forest Research, 2010
A beech bark disease infested American beech tree ( Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) and two uninfested trees were selected in a mature natural stand in Michigan, USA, and mated to form two full-sib families for evaluating the inheritance of resistance to beech scale ( Cryptococcus fagisuga Lind.), the insect element of beech bark disease.

Anticipating Shifts in American Beech Distribution in a Changing Climate

Journal of Biogeography
ABSTRACTAimThis study aimed to anticipate shifts in habitat suitability for American beech (Fagus grandifolia) under current and future climate scenarios using an ensemble of species distribution models (SDM). The resulting habitat suitability projections will serve as a foundational layer for developing a hierarchical risk mapping model for beech leaf

Monitoring the growth of American beech affected by beech bark disease in Maine using the Kalman filter

Environmental and Ecological Statistics, 1996
The effect of beech bark disease on tree growth was tracked using paired resistant and susceptible American beech trees in two locations in Maine. Within each site, the paired trees were chosen in close proximity and with similar morphological characteristics (e.g. stem diameter and crown class) to minimize environment effects in subsequent analysis.

Bark phenolics of American beech (Fagus grandifolia) in relation to the beech bark disease¹

European Journal of Forest Pathology, 1984
AbstractThe amount of total extractable phenols was determined for bark sections obtained from behind cankers naturally induced by Nectria coccinea var. faginata and from behind mechanically inflicted wounds on stems of American beech. Healthy bark from susceptible trees was found to contain a similar level of phenolics as bark from trees determined to
