EPPO Bulletin, Volume 56, Issue 2, Page 370-375, August 2026.Abstract The ascomycetous fungus Cryphonectria carpinicola is typically found in its asexual form on the European hornbeam, and its sexual state has only recently been discovered in deadwood of different Carpinus species in Japan. Recently, this fungus has been added to the EPPO Alert List due to its increasing incidence in the EPPO region and a ...

Descriptions of Chestnut Cultivars for Nut Production in the Eastern and Midwestern United States
HortScience, 2021 The Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima Blume) and other Castanea species (Castanea spp. Mill.) have been imported and circulated among growers and scientists in the United States for more than a century. Initially, importations of C.

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 8, August 2026.Bacterial pathogens colonise woody hosts by integrating metabolic adaptation, effector‐mediated immune suppression, cell wall remodelling and EPS‐ and toxin‐supported persistence. ABSTRACT Bacterial pathogens of woody plants represent a pervasive yet underexplored threat to global agriculture and forestry, causing devastating diseases in fruit trees ...

Phenology and Monitoring of the Lesser Chestnut Weevil (Curculio sayi)
Insects, 2022 With the introduction in recent years of high-yield blight-resistant chestnut varieties, the commercial chestnut industry in the United States is expanding. Accompanying this expansion is a resurgence in a primary pest of chestnut: C.

The Fungus of the Chestnut-Tree Blight
Science, 1912 causing serious injury in the eastern states was first noticed about the year 1904 in the vicinity of New York and is believed to be due to the growth of a hitherto unknown fungus described by Murrill in 1906 under the name of Diaporthe parasitica. The question naturally arises: Is the Diaporthe a native species of this country which had escaped the ...

The immunity paradox: how do plants survive without adaptive immunity?
The Plant Journal, Volume 127, Issue 3, August 2026.SUMMARY Higher plants and mammals exist in similar microbial environments and face similar challenges from microbial pathogens. Both taxonomic groups encode proteins capable of recognizing and triggering responses to pathogens; however, their recognitional capacities differ substantially.

Temperature Alters Specificity in a Host–Parasite Interaction
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.The Red Queen Hypothesis predicts that host–parasite coevolution maintains genetic variation through strong genetic specificity, but this specificity may be sensitive to environmental conditions. Using Meloidogyne arenaria and its parasite Pasteuria penetrans, we tested host–parasite interactions across three temperatures and found specificity at two ...

Interactions between chestnut gall wasp and blight: a new criticality for chestnut
Forest@, 2010 The fast spread of Chinese gall wasp (Dryocosmus kuriphilus) represents a new constraint factor for chestnut stands and orchards in Italy. So far, the favourable effect of hypovirulence in Cryphonectria parasitica-Castanea sativa patho-system allowed the
