The Endophytic Mycobiome of European Ash and Sycamore Maple Leaves – Geographic Patterns, Host Specificity and Influence of Ash Dieback [PDF]
The European ash (Fraxinus excelsior) is threatened by the introduced ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, the causal agent of ash dieback. Endophytic fungi are known to modulate their host’s resistance against pathogens.

Ability of the ash dieback pathogen to reproduce and to induce damage on its host are controlled by different environmental parameters. [PDF]
Ash dieback, induced by an invasive ascomycete, Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, has emerged in the late 1990s as a severe disease threatening ash populations in Europe.

Transformation of European Ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) Callus as a Starting Point for Understanding the Molecular Basis of Ash Dieback [PDF]
The population of European ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) is currently facing the risk of collapse, mainly due to ash dieback, a disease caused by a pathogenic fungus, Hymenoscyphus fraxineus.

Ash Dieback and Its Impact in Near-Natural Forest Remnants – A Plant Community-Based Inventory [PDF]
Temperate European forests are currently largely under attack by the infection with Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, a fungal pathogen introduced from Asia since at least the early 1990s and causing a major dieback of common ash (Fraxinus excelsior) throughout ...

Monitoring Ash Dieback in Europe—An Unrevealed Perspective for Remote Sensing?
The ash dieback pandemic, caused by the invasive fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, represents one of Europe’s biggest threats to preserving natural biodiversity. To ensure the suppression of forest damage caused by fungi, timely recognition of the symptoms

Climate change and the ash dieback crisis. [PDF]
AbstractBeyond the direct influence of climate change on species distribution and phenology, indirect effects may also arise from perturbations in species interactions. Infectious diseases are strong biotic forces that can precipitate population declines and lead to biodiversity loss.
