Table_1_Physiological impacts of beech leaf disease across a gradient of symptom severity among understory American beech.DOCX

, 2023
Beech leaf disease (BLD) damage is associated with the parasitic nematode Litylenchus crenatae ssp. mccannii. Foliar symptoms manifest as darkened or chlorotic galls in the interveinal portions in the leaf, which become leathery and crinkled under high ...

Forest thinning creates short‐term roosting opportunities for northern long‐eared bats in central hardwood forests

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Reconciling timber production with the habitat requirements of forest‐dependent wildlife is a challenge for biodiversity conservation. In managed Central Hardwood Forests of the United States, female northern long‐eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) selected tree roosts near ridgetops and management features, including recently created regeneration ...

Exploiting Native Biodiversity for Invasive Species Management: The Case of Exorista larvarum as a Natural Enemy of the Invasive Box Tree Moth Cydalima perspectalis

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
The investigations evaluated the performance of the native parasitoid Exorista larvarum (L.) on last instar Cydalima perspectalis (Walker) larvae, using the factitious host Galleria mellonella (L.) as a control. Laboratory bioassays were conducted using no‐choice and choice (1:1 and 5:5) experimental designs.

Occurrence of disease symptoms and selected biotic factors connected with beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) dieback phenomenon in stands of The Magurski National Park

Acta Agrobotanica, 2012
The studies were carried out in 12 beech stands, growing on mountain fresh forest site in Magurski National Park. Stands differed in respect of exposition (northern and southern) and age - lower age classes (21-60 years old) and higher age classes (81 ...

Canopy position and tree size structure the distribution of honeydew‐producing scale insects (Hemiptera: Coccoidea) in a temperate hardwood forest

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
Scale insect abundance peaked in the upper canopy of sugar maples. Parthenolecanium peaked on older internodes; Lepidosaphes on the current leader. Internodes longer than the previous carried more scales; wider ones fewer. Abstract Forest canopies are vertically stratified habitats in which microclimate and host tissue quality vary with height.

The Ash Dieback Pathogen Resists the Chemical Defences of Its Host Tree, European Ash, by Depleting Them From the Growth Medium

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant pathogenic fungi are major drivers of disease in forest trees, often causing substantial ecological and economic damage. Ash dieback, caused by the ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, has resulted in the widespread decline of Fraxinus excelsior populations throughout Europe.

Living in the Mycelial World

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This manuscript documents a systematic ethnomycological analysis of ethnographic archives. Focusing on texts describing human–fungi interactions, I conduct a global, cross‐cultural review of mushroom use, covering 193 societies worldwide. The study reveals diverse mushroom‐related cultural practices, emphasizing the significance of fungi ...

Foliar infrared spectra track nematode density and symptom-specific phytobiome signatures in beech leaf disease

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change
Beech leaf disease (BLD), caused by the nematode Litylenchus crenatae ssp. mccannii (LC), poses a severe threat to American beech (Fagus grandifolia) across eastern North America.
