Canditate metabolites for ash dieback tolerance in Fraxinus excelsior

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2020
AbstractAsh dieback, a forest epidemic caused by the invasive fungus Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, threatens ash trees throughout Europe. Within Fraxinus excelsior populations, a small proportion of genotypes show a low susceptibility to the pathogen.

The FORGENIUS Genomic Resources: New Genotyping Tools and Genomic Data for 23 Forest Tree Species and Their Genetic Conservation Units

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Genetic diversity is a critical but often overlooked component of biological diversity. The European H2020 FORGENIUS project is aimed at increasing the quality and quantity of genetic data to start monitoring the European network of forest Genetic Conservation Units (GCUs).

Total herbivore exclusion alters plant species dominance and trait expression in endangered grassy woodlands

Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Herbivores are important drivers of plant community composition and dominance in grassy ecosystems, yet few studies have attempted to understand how different types of herbivores impact plant dominance and function. This study examined the biomass of dominant grass species and other plant functional groups after 3 years of nested herbivore ...

Demystifying fungal systematics: A gateway to fungal literacy and societal/ecological relevance through familiar species

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 2, Page 499-515, March 2026.
Fungal systematics can feel overwhelming given the vast species diversity within this kingdom, with numerous subgroups at every taxonomic rank. This often creates a disconnect between the undertsnidng of fungal taxonomic diversity and their societal relevance.

Surveillance of ash trees under multiple threats: Integrating emerald ash borer and ash dieback dynamics with stakeholder behaviour

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
Tree‐health policies must balance identifying likely entry points and deployment of traps, targeted information campaigns and surveillance subsidies for land managers. Our unique, cross‐disciplinary approach can be applied to other pest/pathogen systems to inform tree‐health plans and how to balance resources.

Evaluating the Potential of WorldView-2 Data to Classify Tree Species and Different Levels of Ash Mortality

Remote Sensing, 2014
Forest disturbances in central Europe caused by fungal pests may result in widespread tree mortality. To assess the state of health and to detect disturbances of entire forest ecosystems, up-to-date knowledge of the tree species diversity is essential ...

Symptoms, prevalence and harmfulness of Fraxinus excelsior L. tuberculosis (pathogen - Pseudomonas syringae pv. savastanoi (Smith 1908) Young et al.)

Наукові праці Лісівничої академії наук України, 2021
It should be noted that in recent years there has been observed a epiphytic dieback of many species of forest woody plants in Ukraine as well as in other countries, which is of dynamic nature and tends to grow.

Effects of Ungulate Herbivores on Temperate Forest Understory Vegetation—Implications From a Large‐Scale Wildlife Exclosure Experiment in Central Europe

Journal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Fenced ungulate exclosure (foreground) with unfenced control plot (background). ABSTRACT Question Ungulates play a key role in influencing understory vegetation and ecosystem dynamics in temperate forests. However, how soil conditions modulate ungulate effects on understory communities remains insufficiently understood.

Identification of ash-associated understorey diversity—a lesson from historical vegetation records

Annals of Forest Science
Key message Forest communities historically dominated by common ash (Fraxinus excelsior L.) were characterized by particularly high species richness in the understorey and included a distinct set of vascular plant species statistically associated with ...
