Genetic predispositions of common ash to the ash dieback caused by ash dieback fungus
Genetika, 2018 The paper reviews information on ash dieback, a serious disease of common ash and its causing agent ash dieback fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus. This paper covers biology and genetics of the causing agent. Main emphasis is given to the genetic predisposition of the tolerance to the disease.

Fraxinus excelsior updated long-read genome reveals the importance of MADS-box genes in tolerance mechanisms against ash dieback. [PDF]
G3 (Bethesda)Ash dieback caused by the fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus has devastated the European ash tree population since it arrived in Europe in 1992. Great effort has been put into breeding programs to increase the genetic diversity of ash trees and find ...

Landscape epidemiology of ash dieback [PDF]
Journal of Ecology, 2019 Abstract Ash dieback caused by Hymenoscyphus fraxineus , an invasive alien pathogen, has been severely damaging European ash populations. Nevertheless, a large range of disease severities was observed at the landscape scale in the field.

Transformation of European Ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) Callus as a Starting Point for Understanding the Molecular Basis of Ash Dieback [PDF]
Plants, 2021 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.

Evolution of Thermal Plasticity in <i>Hymenoscyphus fraxineus</i> During Ash Dieback Expansion in Europe. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe plasticity of adaptive traits may be critical for population persistence in heterogeneous environments. However, its evolution is rarely investigated in forest pathogens, potentially limiting the accuracy of epidemic risk predictions.

Ash Dieback and Its Impact in Near-Natural Forest Remnants – A Plant Community-Based Inventory [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 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 ...
