Summary The oleoresin defense system of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) protects trees from insects and pathogens and is an important source of renewable biofuels and chemicals, but the genetic basis of oleoresin production is poorly understood. We characterized the genetic architecture of oleoresin flow, resin canal number, stem wood terpene content, and ...

We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

ABSTRACT Brown spot needle blight (BSNB), caused by the fungal pathogen Lecanosticta acicola, has been rapidly increasing in incidence and severity on loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), the most dominant and commercially important pine species in the southeastern United States.

The pitch canker fungus, Fusarium circinatum : implications for South African forestry [PDF]
Fusarium circinatum, the causal agent of pitch canker of mature pines and root/collar rot of pine seedlings/cuttings, has resulted in large-scale losses to pine forestry in various parts of the world. The disease caused by this fungus is now regarded as one of the most important threats to pine plantations by a pathogen.

Lecanosticta acicola and Dothistroma septosporum trigger similar symptoms; host responses diverge sharply: Pinus pinea mounts robust defences, P. pinaster remains vulnerable, and P. radiata sustains growth. These contrasting strategies highlight species‐specific resilience and provide key insights for sustainable forest protection.

Commodity risk assessment of oak and walnut logs from the US
Abstract The European Commission submitted to the EFSA Panel on Plant Health a Dossier from the United States proposing the use of a vacuum–steam–heat treatment as a stand‐alone phytosanitary measure to mitigate the risk of entry of Bretziella fagacearum, Geosmithia morbida and its vector Pityophthorus juglandis (thousand cankers disease complex) into ...

Transcriptomics technologies and their potential for pine pitch canker management
Pine pitch canker (PPC) is a serious disease of Pinus spp. and Pseudotsuga menziesii globally. The infection of its causal agent, Fusarium circinatum, causes pitch or resin-soaked cankers on trunks and lateral branches of mature hosts, which may eventually die due to girdling or stem breakage.
