Modeling and Analysis of American Chestnut Populations Subject to Various Stages of Infection

open access: yesLetters in Biomathematics, 2014
American chestnuts, Castanea dentata, were once a dominant tree in eastern deciduous forests of the United States before the chestnut blight fungus, Cryphonectria parasitica, was introduced unintentionally in the early 1900s in New York.

Reconsidering the fire ecology of the iconic American chestnut

open access: yesEcosphere, 2020
The iconic American chestnut (Castanea dentata) once spanned a large portion of eastern North America before its functional extinction in the early 20th century due primarily to non‐native fungal pathogens.

Effects of Debris Flow Disturbance on Vegetation, Soils, and Topography in a Steep Landscape in Central Virginia

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract In August 1969, intense rainfall from the remnants of Hurricane Camille triggered >150 debris flows in Fortune's Cove, a first‐order drainage basin in central Virginia. These debris flows reshaped the landscape by stripping colluvium and vegetation from hollows.

Demographic and genetic factors affect the use of translocation for evolutionary rescue: A case study of American chestnut using simulation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.
These findings underscore the importance, complexity and flexibility of strategic translocations for ensuring the recovery of plant species limited by adaptive genetic diversity. Abstract For many plant species at risk, recovery depends on supplementing populations with adaptive genetic diversity through translocations but specific introduction ...

Soil Metals and Ectomycorrhizal Fungi Associated with American Chestnut Hybrids as Reclamation Trees on Formerly Coal Mined Land

open access: yesInternational Journal of Agronomy, 2017
Hybrid chestnut (Castanea dentata × C. mollissima) has the potential to provide a valuable agroforestry crop on formerly coal mined landscapes. However, the soil interactions of mycorrhizal fungi and buried metals associated with mining are not known ...

Early Postfire Regeneration Determines Long‐Term Successional Trajectories in Temperate Pinus densiflora Forests of Korea

open access: yesJournal of Vegetation Science, Volume 37, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Twenty years of permanent‐plot data reveal that post‐fire forest recovery is determined early by burn severity and initial regeneration. Severe‐burn stands diverged sharply, ranging from rapidly developing Quercus‐dominated forests to delayed open vegetation, while light‐burn stands retained pine dominance.

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

Fine‐Scale Spatial Genetic Structure and Leaf Shape Variation in Five Fagaceae Species: Insights Into Conservation and Adaptation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.
We investigated both fine‐scale SGS and leaf shape variation in five Fagaceae species (Q. glauca, Q. multinervis, C. tibetana, C. faberi, and C. fargesii) from the genera Quercus and Castanopsis in Wuyishan National Park. We found that Quercus species exhibit stronger fine‐scale SGS than Castanopsis species.
