Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 382-397, August 2026.We assess the effect of sanitation felling performed in 2022 in North‐Eastern Italy on bark beetle damage that occurred in 2023 across eight spruce forest types, as evaluated using multispectral satellite imagery. Bark beetle damage was reduced only at very high or very low sanitation felling rates.

Viral Transmission Between Heterobasidion parviporum Strains in Wood Billets and Decaying Stumps
Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT The combined use of Heterobasidion partitiviruses HetPV13‐an1 and HetPV15‐pa1 is considered a promising biocontrol approach against Heterobasidion root and butt rot. Both viruses mediate debilitating effects in many Heterobasidion isolates and are transmitted efficiently in laboratory conditions.

GCB Bioenergy, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.In the Northeastern US, short‐rotation willow biomass crops have the potential to serve as nurse crops that facilitate hardwood regeneration on former agricultural land to support afforestation efforts. Regeneration declines with distance from natural seed sources, but could be augmented with seeding/underplanting.
