Diversity and potential sources of introduction of the beech leaf nematode ( <i>Litylenchus crenatae mccannii</i> ) to Ontario, Canada Open
Litylenchus crenatae mccannii is a foliar nematode that causes severe damage to beech, known as beech leaf disease (BLD). Previous studies have characterized and identified L. crenataein Japan and a subspecies L. crenatae mccannii in the U…
Biosurveillance of oak wilt disease in Canadian areas at risk Open
Biosurveillance of invasive species is critical for protecting native ecosystems and limiting economic losses. Early detection of pathogens through qPCR methods has recently shown great promise and can potentially slow the spread of devast…
Applying three decades of research to mitigate the impacts of hemlock woolly adelgid on Ontario’s forests Open
Over the past 70 years, the introduced, invasive hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae Annand) has become established and caused considerable decline and mortality of eastern hemlock (Tsuga canadensis (L.) Carr.) across much of the tree’s…
New records of Nitidulidae (Nitidulidae, Coleoptera) species in Canada, Ontario, and Manitoba Open
Nitidulidae trapping performed from 2018 to 2021 to characterize flight behaviors of potential vectors of the oak wilt pathogen yielded three new species records for Canada, six new species records for Ontario, and three new species record…
New records of Nitidulidae (Nitidulidae, Coleoptera) species in Canada, Ontario, and Manitoba Open
This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Reed, Sharon E., Dutkiewicz, David, Ross, Fiona, Llewellyn, Jennifer, Fraser, Hannah (2023): New records of Nitidulidae (Nitidulidae, Coleoptera)…
The distribution of beech leaf disease and the causal agents of beech bark disease (Cryptoccocus fagisuga, Neonectria faginata, N. ditissima) in forests surrounding Lake Erie and future implications Open
Over the past century, beech bark disease has dramatically altered the composition and structure of stands containing American beech (Fagus grandifolia). Management of beech bark disease has focused on reducing beech thickets and identifyi…
Assessing the climate suitability and potential economic impacts of Oak wilt in Canada Open
We assess risks posed by oak wilt—a disease caused by the fungal pathogen Bretziella fagacearum . Though not currently found in Canada, our distribution models indicate that suitable climate conditions currently occur in southern Ontario f…

Fungi Associated with Damage Observed on Branches of <i>Juglans nigra</i> in Indiana, Missouri, and Tennessee Open
Branch and stem cankers caused by Geosmithia morbida associated with mass attack by its primary insect vector (Pityophthorus juglandis) result in thousand cankers disease (TCD) on Juglans and Pterocarya species. Because other fungi and ins…
<i>Phytophthora</i> Species Detected in Two Ozark Forests with Unusual Patterns of White Oak Mortality Open
Widespread decline and mortality of white oaks (Quercus alba) occurred in Missouri Ozark forests between 2011 and 2017. Symptoms included rapid crown death with bronzing of leaves, retention of dead leaves, crown dieback and thinning, and …
