Estimating coextinction risks from epidemic tree death: affiliate lichen communities among diseased host tree populations of Fraxinus excelsior. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 At least 10% of the world's tree species are threatened with extinction and pathogens are increasingly implicated in tree threats. Coextinction and threats to affiliates as a consequence of the loss or decline of their host trees is a poorly understood ...

Genomic basis of European ash tree resistance to ash dieback fungus. [PDF]
Nat Ecol Evol, 2019 SummaryPopulations of European ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior) are being devastated by the invasive alien fungusHymenoscyphus fraxineus, which causes ash dieback (ADB). We sequenced whole genomic DNA from 1250 ash trees in 31 DNA pools, each pool containing trees with the same ADB damage status in a screening trial and from the same seed-source zone.

Chalara fraxinea - ash dieback in the Czech Republic [PDF]
Plant Protection Science, 2009 The causal agent of ash dieback, the hyphomycete Chalara fraxinea, was isolated from a Fraxinus excelsior cv. Pendula tree, in the Arboretum Křtiny between Křtiny and Jedovnice in Drahany Highland, and subsequently from several other locations in South ...

Ash dieback and contributing factors of forest weakening in provenance tests in the Sumy region
Central European Forestry Journal, 2021 The aim of this study was to evaluate the health condition of Fraxinus excelsior L. in provenance tests, with special focus on ash dieback (ADB), but taking into account also other causes of its decline.

Ecological impacts of ash dieback in Great Britain [PDF]
, 2018 Ash dieback is a severe disease of ash trees (Fraxinus spp.), caused by the invasive fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus. In its native East Asia, H. fraxineus is a harmless endophyte, but since its accidental import into Europe in the early 1990s it has infected over 90% of ash trees in some areas, with long-term mortality sometimes exceeding 90%.

Monitoring Ash Dieback in Europe—An Unrevealed Perspective for Remote Sensing?
Remote Sensing, 2023 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
