Vaccination of Elms against Dutch Elm Disease—Are the Associated Epiphytes and Endophytes Affected? [PDF]
Journal of Fungi, 2023 Dutch elm disease (DED) is causing extensive mortality of ecologically and culturally valuable elm trees (Ulmus spp.). Treatment of elms with the biological vaccine Dutch Trig® has been found to provide effective protection against DED by stimulating the

Resistance to Dutch elm disease reduces presence of xylem endophytic fungi in Elms (Ulmus spp.). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Efforts to introduce pathogen resistance into landscape tree species by breeding may have unintended consequences for fungal diversity. To address this issue, we compared the frequency and diversity of endophytic fungi and defensive phenolic metabolites ...

Bark and wood tissues of American elm exhibit distinct responses to Dutch elm disease [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Tolerance to Dutch elm disease (DED) has been linked to the rapid and/or high induction of disease-responsive genes after infection with the fungus Ophiostoma novo-ulmi. Although the fungal infection by O.

Microbiome analysis and epigenetic patterns revealed distinct differences between two elm species with contrasting Dutch elm disease resistance [PDF]
MicrobiomeBackground Dutch elm disease (DED), caused by the fungus Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, has devastated elm species in Europe and North America for over a century. While the Chinese elm (Ulmus parvifolia) frequently displays notable resistance to DED, the European

Dutch elm disease and elm bark beetles: a century of association
iForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2015 Bark beetles of the genus Scolytus Geoffroy are the main vectors of the fungus Ophiostoma ulmi s.l., which causes the Dutch elm disease. The large and small elm bark beetles - S. scolytus (F.) and S.

Massive sequencing of Ulmus minor's transcriptome provides new molecular tools for a genus under the constant threat of Dutch elm disease [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Elms, especially Ulmus minor and Ulmus americana, are carrying out a hard battle against Dutch elm disease (DED). This vascular wilt disease, caused by Ophiostoma ulmi and O. novo-ulmi, appeared in the twentieth century and killed millions of elms across
