IntroductionThe ascomycete Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, originating from Asia, is currently threatening common ash (Fraxinus excelsior) in Europe, massive ascospore production from the saprotrophic phase being a key determinant of its invasiveness.MethodsTo ...

We conclude that horizon scanning provides a rapid, affordable and successful mechanism to predict the arrival of high‐risk INNS. We highlight the importance of citizen science, including biological recording, and of local expertise for detecting and documenting arrival of INNS.

L’émergence de la chalarose en France
En France métropolitaine, les frênes, dans l’environnement forestier ou non, sont affaiblis depuis une dizaine d’années par une nouvelle maladie épidémique de grande ampleur appelée chalarose.

The worldwide erosion of amphibian biodiversity has been linked to the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). Our study reveals that with increased frequency of testing across time periods, the proportion of Bd‐positive species worsening in IUCN Red List category is increasing in temperate regions, but not around equatorial areas.

Widespread Latent Presence of Cryptostroma corticale in Sycamore Maple in France
Increasing drought events promote forest disease emergence, exemplified by Sooty Bark Disease (SBD) of Acer pseudoplatanus caused by Cryptostroma corticale. Across six French regions, the pathogen was detected in 13.6% of asymptomatic trees, indicating widespread latent presence that could trigger disease outbreaks under future drought and high host ...

Influence of site and stand factors on Hymenoscyphus fraxineus ‐induced basal lesions [PDF]
Hymenoscyphus fraxineus is an invasive fungus in Europe and causes a severe decline affecting ash, which began in the late 1990s. One of the symptoms associated with the disease is lesions in the outer bark of the collar area. However, the aetiology of these basal lesions, and in particular the relative roles of

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.

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 ...

The viability of a breeding programme for ash in the British Isles in the face of ash dieback
Societal Impact Statement The current ash dieback epidemic in Europe caused by Hymenoscyphus fraxineus poses a key question to policy makers: whether or not to commit time and resources to the initiation of a breeding programme for the development of ...

Genetic diversity is key to a nature‐positive future
Abstract Nature‐positive describes the concept of halting and then reversing the loss of biodiversity in a manner that is equitable to all, particularly indigenous peoples and local communities. Genetic diversity is the foundational component of biodiversity, underpinning species and ecosystem diversity.
