Pinus Susceptibility to Pitch Canker Triggers Specific Physiological Responses in Symptomatic Plants: An Integrated Approach

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Fusarium circinatum, the causal agent of pine pitch canker (PPC), is an emergent and still understudied risk that threatens Pinus forests worldwide, with potential production and sustainability losses.

Susceptibility of Five Landscape Pines to Pitch Canker Disease, Caused by Fusarium subglutinans f. sp. pini [PDF]

HortScience, 1998
Pitch canker, caused by Fusarium subglutinans f. sp . pini, causes branch dieback and stem cankers in many species of pine. Monterey pine ( Pinus radiata D. Don), one of the most widely planted pines in the world,

Screening of Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster) for resistance to Fusarium circinatum, the causal agent of Pitch Canker disease [PDF]

Forestry, 2011
Pitch canker, caused by the fungus Fusarium circinatum, is an introduced non-native disease on pines in natural and planted stands of Europe. Research has not been conducted to test whether a European native pine species shows genetic variation in susceptibility to this disease.

Response of Fungal Communities to Anthropogenic Disturbances in a Tropical Forest

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Conversion of forests to agricultural land leads to a decline in soil biodiversity and it affects the ecosystem services that they provide. The rising population around Mt. Kenya forest and an increase in demand for land and forest resources has led to deforestation. However, the impact on fungal communities remains unknown.

Mycochemical Diversity and Therapeutic Potential of Hymenochaetoid Fungi from Central Asia: Regional and Global Perspectives

New Zealand Journal of Botany, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Central Asia harbors a rich yet understudied assemblage of wood‐inhabiting Hymenochaetoid fungi. This review delivers the first comprehensive synthesis of 43 poroid species representing 18 genera documented across montane forests, steppes, and xeric habitats.

Defence transcriptome assembly and pathogenesis related gene family analysis in Pinus tecunumanii (low elevation)

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Fusarium circinatum is a pressing threat to the cultivation of many economically important pine tree species. Efforts to develop effective disease management strategies can be aided by investigating the molecular mechanisms involved in the ...

The Vulnerability of New Zealand Forage Plants to Incursions by New Pests, Pathogens and Weeds, and the Case for Greater Protection

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
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.

First Report of Pitch Canker Disease Caused by Rhizosphaera kalkhoffii on Pinus sylvestris in China

Plant Disease, 2013
In November 2010, pitch canker disease was first discovered on Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica Litv. from Daxinganling region in Inner Mongolia Province, China, resulting in severe dieback and bark cracking on the host, accompanied by resin flowing profusely from cankers on the infected branches, cones, and trunks (2).

An Artificial Inoculation Protocol for Greenhouse Resistance Screening of Loblolly Pine Seedlings Against Brown Spot Needle Blight

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
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.

Interaction Between Pinus Species and Foliar Fungal Pathogens: Similar Symptoms, Contrasting Physiology

Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
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.
