Commodity risk assessment of oak and walnut logs from the US

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The European Commission submitted to the EFSA Panel on Plant Health a Dossier from the United States proposing the use of a vacuum–steam–heat treatment as a stand‐alone phytosanitary measure to mitigate the risk of entry of Bretziella fagacearum, Geosmithia morbida and its vector Pityophthorus juglandis (thousand cankers disease complex) into ...

Transgenic American Chestnuts Do Not Inhibit Germination of Native Seeds or Colonization of Mycorrhizal Fungi

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The American chestnut (Castanea dentata) was once an integral part of eastern United States deciduous forests, with many environmental, economic, and social values. This ended with the introduction of an invasive fungal pathogen that wiped out over three

Modelling the historic distribution and habitat of American chestnut (Castanea dentata) in Georgia, USA using edaphic and landform predictors [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers of Biogeography
The loss of American chestnut (Castanea dentata Marsh. Bork.) caused ecological change in many community types of the eastern United States. Restoration is challenged by climate change and two naturalised invasive non-native diseases, chestnut blight ...

Biological invasions: a global assessment of geographic distributions, long‐term trends, and data gaps

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Facilitation of American Chestnut (Castanea dentata) Seedling Establishment byPinus virginianain Mine Restoration [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ecology, 2012
This study evaluated the influence of planting sites on the establishment and ectomycorrhizal (ECM) colonization of American chestnut (Castanea denetata(Marsh.) Borkh.) on an abandoned coal mine in an Appalachian region of the United States. Root morphotyping and sequencing of the fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region were used to identify ...

Development of a Simplified PCR‐Nucleic Acid Lateral Flow Immunoassay (PCR‐NALFIA) for Cryptostroma corticale, the Causal Agent of Sooty Bark Disease

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 74, Issue 9, Page 2728-2737, December 2025.
We present a portable, species‐specific PCR‐NALFIA assay for field detection of Cryptostroma corticale from crude samples in < 2 h, offering a practical tool for managing this emerging threat to urban and native maple trees. ABSTRACT Sooty bark disease (SBD), caused by the fungus Cryptostroma corticale, is causing a widespread outbreak on sycamore ...

Cossid moths (Lepidoptera: Cossidae) as pests of woody plants – A review

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 512-531, November 2025.
Abstract The Cossidae is a worldwide family of macro‐moths popularly known as carpenter moths due to the larval habit of boring in the wood of living plants. This review compiles current knowledge on the characteristics, diversity and bionomy of cossid moths as well as the damage they cause on woody plants.

Reducing resilience debt: Mechanical felling and repeated prescribed fires may sustain eastern oak forests

open access: yesEcological Applications, Volume 35, Issue 7, October 2025.
Abstract The misalignment of species adaptations with current environmental conditions can cause ecosystems to lose resilience, accumulate resilience debt, and transition to another state. Such a state change is evident in eastern North American broadleaf forests where dominant tree species are shifting from oaks (Quercus spp.) to mesophytic species ...
